Skyward in the dark (Version 2)

Intro

Skyward in the dark

Find my way back

Verse 1 – Piano and light handclaps

Sweat on the collar, chest to the bar

Counting breaths till you show me who we are

Every face is a blur and the sound of your name

Pops up loud like it's mine alone in this place

Pre-Chorus

So don't turn off the light just yet

Let the shadows keep on moving

Don't say goodbye before it's done

Cause I'm still finding my way home

Chorus – Full production, big strings and handclaps

Skyward in the dark

I find my way back

Every light you shine pulls me through

To where we started but this time true

Skyward in the dark

We're finally breaking through

Every step is a door that swings open wide

Verse 2 – Piano and light handclaps

Four o'clock and your laughter cuts through

Shadows running for cover, they don't know what to do

The crowd fades out when I look in your eyes

For the first time tonight, the dark doesn't lie

Pre-Chorus

So don't turn off the light just yet

Let the shadows keep on moving

Don't say goodbye before it's done

Cause I'm still finding my way home

Chorus – Full production, big strings and handclaps

Skyward in the dark

I find my way back

Every light you shine pulls me through

To where we started but this time true

Skyward in the dark

We're finally breaking through

Every step is a door that swings open wide

Bridge – Piano and vocal only, low reverb

No more shadows, just us two

Just the ceiling spinning like it's brand new

The whole world waited outside the room

But we kept our own rhythm here in the dark of the room

Chorus – Full production, big strings and handclaps

Skyward in the dark

I find my way back

Every light you shine pulls me through

To where we started but this time true

Skyward in the dark

We're finally breaking through

Every step is a door that swings open wide

Outro – Piano arpeggios

So we rise up through the dark

And the lights keep burning bright
