The Light

Do you remember? We used to swim in the moonlight after dark Do you remember? The way the windows broke the light I still remember We used to never be scared when we were young Tell me, do you remember at all Like a flash in the dark And my lost winter land is unfrozen Just a glow from a spark Can ignite a candle bright Peaceful shine awoken inside I can fall a thousand times and dance on burning embers Just a warm embrace, or a touch of grace A first heartbeat of new life You can fall a thousand times, as long as you remember All you need in the end is a long-lost friend To remind you through the night That joy is the light Do you remember? Us running wild with the wind beneath our wings Cold snow in December When we defied the steepest hill I still remember Without a care in the world, forever high I will always remember it all Just a flash in the dark And my lost winter land is unfrozen Just a glow from a spark Can ignite a candle bright Peaceful shine awoken inside I can fall a thousand times and dance on burning embers Just a warm embrace, or a touch of grace A first heartbeat of new life You can fall a thousand times, as long as you remember All you need in the end is a long-lost friend To remind you through the night That joy is the light There was a time that I was lost in darkness The greatest pain that I have ever felt In agony and misery I wandered without light With nothing there to fill the hole inside There was a night, I saw my eyes deceiving me Fooling myself I was a victim of circumstance But tonight I feel the lies all leaving me I am breaking free It's a choice that you can't leave to chance I'm forging my life in the fires awoken inside I can fall a thousand times and dance on burning embers Just a warm embrace, or a touch of grace A first heartbeat of new life You can fall a thousand times, as long as you remember All you need in the end is a long-lost friend To remind you through the night That joy is the light
