Hold this light in my hand (wersja 2)

Intro

Hold this light in my hand

Verse

Fingers curled around a glass bottle filled with moonlight

A silver curve against the palm of an old man

This is what we carry through all the years

The slow warmth climbing up from empty hours

Pre-Chorus

Let it settle into your chest now

Breathe in deep and let this quiet stay

Chorus

Hold this light in my hand

Watch as it climbs along your spine

You don't know what's waiting down the road

But right here it's only warm and fine

Hold this light in my hand

And we'll ride through whatever comes next

With nothing left to prove but just our peace

Verse

He passes it over like a family heirloom

A small weight pressed into the crook of your arm

It seems too easy now for us to find comfort

In something that was never ours at all

Pre-Chorus

Let it settle into your chest now

Breathe in deep and let this quiet stay

Chorus

Hold this light in my hand

Watch as it climbs along your spine

You don't know what's waiting down the road

But right here it's only warm and fine

Hold this light in my hand

And we'll ride through whatever comes next

With nothing left to prove but just our peace

Bridge

Maybe this is all we've ever had

A small flame passed from one hand to another

Not a map or a compass, not a guiding star

Just the soft heat climbing up your collarbone and there

We'll carry it with us when it's time to go

And let it guide us through whatever comes next

Chorus

Hold this light in my hand

Watch as it climbs along your spine

You don't know what's waiting down the road

But right here it's only warm and fine

Hold this light in my hand

And we'll ride through whatever comes next

With nothing left to prove but just our peace

Outro

(Softly) Hold this light in my hand...
