Your Light
The Big Moon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't, don't, don't, don't say another sorry today
One more time is more than you mean anyway
Lately I've been fine, floating away
Got so out of touch and started to levitate

Now we just hang around like a haircut growing out
This planet never needed gravity to drag you down
But days like this (days like this)
I forget (I forget)
My darkness (my darkness)
And remember your light

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
I remember your light
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Don't, don't, don't, don't blame another night on the moon
Sometimes faith just sings to a different tune
Why do you have to take it out so hard on yourself (I don't wanna lose myself, lose myself)
We were promised the world, so was everyone else (I don't wanna lose myself, lose myself)

So maybe it's an end 'cause this don't feel like a start
But every generation probably thought they were the last

And days like this (days like this)
I forget (I forget)
My darkness (my darkness)
And remember your light

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
And remember your light
Oh, oh, oh (I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I)
(Remember your light)

(Do I wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)

(Do I wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)

I wanna speak but I'm wondering how
And I wonder since when was my voice a foreign object in my mouth
But what you're doing for me
I just wish I could do, I could do it for you

Yeah what you're doing for me
I just wish I could do
I could do it for you (I could do it for you)

'Cause days like this (days like this)
I forget (I forget)
All of this (all of this)
And remember your light

And remember your light

And remember your light
(I don't wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)

And remember your light
(I don't wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)
(Wanna lose myself)





And remember your light

Overall Meaning

The Big Moon's "Your Light" is a captivating song that explores the idea of finding someone who lifts you up during your darkest moments. The verses seemingly address a person who constantly apologizes and takes the blame for things they shouldn't, while the chorus acknowledges that despite the singer's own darkness, they are still able to remember the other person's light. The line "Do I wanna lose myself? Wanna lose myself?" may suggest that the singer doesn't know how to balance their own problems and their partner's, and is struggling with feeling like they're losing themselves in the relationship. Despite this, they end the song on a hopeful note, reminding themselves that they don't want to lose themselves and that their partner's light is still shining.


The lyrics flow smoothly throughout the song, with the catchy chorus reminding us of the main theme of the song. The bridge adds a new dimension to the song, with the singer reflecting on their own shortcomings and the fact that they wish they were able to do more for their partner.

Despite my knowledge of the series sapphroic perspective I never watched it for fear it would ruin my own connection to Emily. But your comment on this song rippled up a memory:

AS imperceptibly as grief
The summer lapsed away, —
Too imperceptible, at last,
To seem like perfidy.

A quietness distilled,
As twilight long begun,
Or Nature, spending with herself
Sequestered afternoon.

The dusk drew earlier in,
The morning foreign shone, —
A courteous, yet harrowing grace,
As guest who would be gone.

And thus, without a wing,
Or service of a keel,
Our summer made her light escape
Into the beautiful.
Emily Dickinson

Nothing to see here. Just a 41 year old who woke up at 0430 and can’t get back to sleep and is now watching this video and crying! Happy tears. Saw these gals perform this live on Tuesday night in the best wee indy music venue in the world and I can’t tell you how wonderful it was. Music will always be my constant. It never lets me down. The real love of my life. The lyrics to this song are just gorgeous. I can’t get enough of this band right now. A must see live. 💗💗💗💗 (also - have a total crush on Fern) xx

@eightiesmusic1984

Never heard of the band until this song appeared as a recommendation on You Tube. I like the song and will check out their other music. Good comment and I agree about the power of music.

@pelerinc

You seem like someone I'd like to know. Marry me?

You can't keep good women down. Salute❤
