Hold on to the light (Version 2) — Halden Rae

Verse 1

You said don't look back when you're walking out the door

I'm not looking where I came from, I'm walking through it more

Sun's still burning red on your front porch light

But my own horizon feels wide enough tonight

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how do we let go of something that used to be us?

Is this just a goodbye in disguise or can we turn the page with this?

I don't wanna lose myself again, I wanna find what's left behind

Can you help me learn to leave you behind?

Chorus

Hold on to the light that is leaving now

Don't let go of it till it feels true

You said don't look back but here I stand

Holding onto this fading hand

Verse 2

Your shadow still moves along the alleyway where we used to talk

I keep seeing you in every sunset's orange, golden walk

We had our own constellation that hung above your roof

Now it's just a scattered map of what we thought was true

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how do we let go of something that used to be us?

Is this just a goodbye in disguise or can we turn the page with this?

I don't wanna lose myself again, I wanna find what's left behind

Can you help me learn to leave you behind?

Chorus

Hold on to the light that is leaving now

Don't let go of it till it feels true

You said don't look back but here I stand

Holding onto this fading hand

Bridge

What if we're not saying goodbye at all?

What if we're just becoming two instead of one?

I'm taking the glow that was between us, making it my own sun

Watch me turn what used to be our light into something new again

Chorus

Hold on to the light that is leaving now

Don't let go of it till it feels true

You said don't look back but here I stand

Holding onto this fading hand
