The Light
CHPTRS Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, you looked me in the eyes and you said it
And your face can say it all, so I know you meant it
And if I lose my way
Will I know where to find you?
Will I know where to find you?

Then I looked you in the eyes with a promise
Not brighter than the stars are, finish what I started
And if you lose your way
You will know where to find me

In the dark of the night
Follow the light, come back home
In the dark of the night
Follow the light, come back home

I saw you standing there, with an open heart
And with opens arms, you welcomed me
I heard you speak my name
With thunder and lightning
Pierced through the shadows
As you welcomed me
(As you welcomed me)

In the dark of the night
Follow the light, come back home
In the dark of the night
Follow the light, come back home

Through wind and wave, I'm whispering
Are you listening? Yeah

In the dark of the night
Follow the light, come back home
In the dark of the night
Follow the light, come back home
(Follow the light)
(Follow the light, come back home)

I saw you standing there, with an open heart
And with opens arms, you welcomed me
I heard you speak my name
With thunder and lightning




Pierced through the shadows
As you welcomed me
