Lyrics
Could you let the light come in for a while?
Looks like it's been some time since the world saw you smile
Probabaly not the way you meant to spend all your days
Could you let the light come in for a while?
The fury in your eyes makes you wild
The bitter cup you hold, its bigger than the Nile
Kept you warm on winter nights, but stole you from this place
Could you let the light come in for a while?
I don't know yet if it's too late for the sun to shine one you
I don't even know if you can find a way to let it through
But this ballad in your heart, one you swear is true,
it'll take your mind for all it's worth and then cut your soul in two
Could you let the light come in for a while?
Oh bravery is something I could lend
To help you face the stitches, out you on the mend
I'll let hold my hand, I can help you take a stand
Could you let the light come in for a while?
