In the Light

I hear your footsteps on the concrete pavement
You're wearing your old worn sneakers from last summer
I stood there waiting for you to come closer
You may be a dream but no dream could be sweeter

I can still feel your breath
Warm against my cheek
Whispering those words
Those words as soothing as the breeze

And in the light
Everything is pretty
We'd sit and swing and stare up at the stars
All burning bright

And in the light
Everything is precious
We'd laugh and cry about the things that we feared
In the night

Always in the light in the light in the light

I feel you stop in your tracks and look at me
Like you've forgotten all we've seen and what we've been
The way you held my hand, the way you held it tight
You'd said you'd never let me go, forever, not ever

I can still feel your breath
Warm against my cheek
Whispering those words
Those words as soothing as the breeze

And in the light
Everything is perfect
We'd dance into the freedom of our music
And take flight

And in the light
Everything is present
We'd leave the past and the future all behind
all behind

Always in the light in the light in the light
In the light in the light in the light
Always in the light
