The Light
Misterer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Twenty to four, woke up in the night
Longing for lust, longing for the light
I crave to touch you once again, hold you close until the end

'Cause you are the light, you are the savior
For you I would fight
Through the night we'd carry each other once again
Until the end

I hold you like the lovers do
So many times I've needed you
To ease down the action
And soon I know there'll be a time
You calm me down and make me shine
I long for your protection

'Cause you are the light, you are the savior
Safe in the darkness, away from all the failure
You are the light, you are the savior
For you I would fight




Through the night we'd carry each other again and again
Until the end.
