Hold onto the Light 2 — Emory Odessa

Verse 1

Pulse on the skin where your hand touches mine

Velvet darkness with your shadows and mine

Every step forward into the haze

Leaves something behind in the noise of this phase

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it, can you feel it pull you near?

Something we've never found but always here

Chorus

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark

You and I moving through this moment where it starts

No one else can see it shining right there for us alone

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark tonight

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark tonight

Hold onto the light that's burning, hold onto the light

Verse 2

Salt on your collar and a breath you shared

We let go of the parts we can't repair

Only room for the part where love is true

And the weight of every else just lifts right out of view

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it, can you feel it pull you near?

Something we've never found but always here

Chorus

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark

You and I moving through this moment where it starts

No one else can see it shining right there for us alone

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark tonight

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark tonight

Hold onto the light that's burning, hold onto the light

Bridge

It's not the whole world we're leaving behind

Just the bits of ourselves that aren't yet aligned

This is just a moment and it will pass away

But while we have this breath, I want to stay

Chorus

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark

You and I moving through this moment where it starts

No one else can see it shining right there for us alone

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark tonight

Hold onto the light that's burning in the dark tonight

Hold onto the light that's burning, hold onto the light

Outro

Hold onto the light

Burning in the dark
