This wasn't a perfect ending   And you are still leaving here   I wish I could bring you back    And hold you so near      You took my hand and showed me how to believe this ache   I find the strength to carry on   In something you can't take   And the reasons pile up   Stacks upon stacks of lame excuses      But you are my light   Through my darkest nights   Yes you are my light   Through my darkest nights   Keep shining bright      I wish I'd explained to you   How I can finally see   The way I was meant to stay   You're the only light I need   And these roads, they twist and turn   But I can see you at the end      And you are my light   Through my darkest nights   Yes you are my light   Through my darkest nights   Keep shining bright      Don't you see how this works   They only remember the times when I was a total jerk   Can we just start this again   Can you light my way   Then I'll begin   I'll begin      And you are my light   Through my darkest nights   Keep shining bright   I have faith in you   Do what you do   Keep shining bright   I have faith in you   Do what you do   Keep shining bright      Do what you do   Do what you do
