The Light

Hold on to me girl we're not going down in flames Though a fire's burnt the ground every mile in the trail we've made We've seen times that were rough and we've shined Like a lantern in the darkest coal mine So take my hand. We'll keep heading up to the light Our story began like a bona fide hurricane down in old Boheme Like the blast from a barrel shook me down to the marrow Left me begging you for more of the same I knew that you were moving like the continental drift And yea the wind would soon be blowing you away So I didn't let go and I'm still holding on today Hold on to me girl we're not going down in flames Though a fire's burnt the ground every mile in the trail we've made We've seen times that were rough and we've shined Like a lantern in the darkest coal mine So take my hand. We'll keep heading up to the light The heavens up above are falling to The ground and I just try to understand Every way and anyway to make it home alive and lay still hand in hand And in the black where the heart is taxed to the bone leaving one bare Don't let go my dear. Hold on to me girl we're not going down in flames Though a fire's burnt the ground every mile in the trail we've made We've seen times that were rough and we've shined Like a lantern in the darkest coal mine So take my hand. We'll keep heading up to the light Hold on to me girl we're not going down in flames Though a fire's burnt the ground every mile in the trail we've made We've seen times that were rough and we've shined Like a lantern in the darkest coal mine So take my hand. We'll keep heading up to the light
