The Light the Sunshine Brings

Its night

And I

Can only think of you

Its dark

But I

See the light still shining through

Its warm

Inside

Reminds me that this is true

Its bound

To Last

Forget all the shit we've both been through



And I know

That together is not the only way to be

But right now

Together is all that I can see

With you

I feel something so new

No need to hide anything

I'll be the light the sunshine brings



Please forget everything you thought you knew

Before me, I'll try to be everything that makes you smile

Just move away from all that we regret inside

We hide, I'll pick the lock until I find the key

And everything that matters

It can possibly last forever

And everything that's unknown

It just takes some time until we're both shown



That deep inside our dreams we hide

No matter where we go

That deep inside our hearts are cold

I might be the one to warm your soul

We hide behind all of our regrets

Mistakes only meant to teach us lessons

Our lives can get better every day

Just have faith that I won't be gone tomorrow



And I know

That together is not the only way to be

But right now

Together is all that I can see

With you

I feel something so new

No need to hide anything

No need to be blind to anything

No need to hide behind anything...

I'll be the light the sunshine brings tomorrow
