lyrics

I keep holding my breath,
I’m waiting to let go.
Try, try as I might,
The next thing I think,
I think all alone.

Walking slow I have been told,
That I walk without you.
In this moment my hands get cold,
But I’m hanging on to you, on to you.

I was praying hard,
For my time, my time and,
Thinking in the dark,
It’s all right, all right and,
Even if I’m gone,
I’ll be fine, you’ll be fine,
We’ll be fine.

You set my heart alight.

Time, time’s on my side,
I keep my head held high my mind is low.
Your eyes, so warm, so fine,
They hold me to the sky-lined sun I know.

Body aches and it all fades,
But I ache without you.
No more space, just many shades,
Of hanging on to you, on to you.

I was praying hard,
For my time, my time and,
Thinking in the dark,
It’s all right, all right and,
Even when I’m gone,
I’ll be fine, you’ll be fine,
We’ll be fine.

You set my heart alight.

Whenever you’re gone,
Whenever I’m lost,
I see you my heart turns into light.
Back of my mind,
Back of my heart,
See you, these visions come alive.
You’re all that I’ve got,
You're all that I want,
I’m holding you close till I ignite.
Yeah, I’m holding on,
Nothing is lost,
All that I need, you give me fire.

I was praying hard,
For my time, my time and,
Thinking in the dark,
It’s all right, all right and,
Even when I’m gone,
I’ll be fine, you’ll be fine,
We’ll be fine.

You set my heart alight,
Heart alight.
