My Light

If the sun never chose
To shine on our home,
It's alright;
You are my light, and
If the clouds never broke,
And the air always cold,
Never mind;
I'll be alright;
You are my light...

You led me by the hand
Into a world that was not mine;
I was afraid because
My love had been taken;
The fabric of my former life
Was fraying but...

If the sun never chose
To shine on our home,
It's alright;
You are my light, and
If the clouds never broke,
And the air always cold,
Never mind;
I'll be alright;
You are my light...

If the world doesn't choose
Either me or my family,
I don't care now because
I have found my riches
In the feeling in your eyes now;
I am fine now...

If the sun never chose
To shine on our home,
It's alright;
You are my light, and
If the clouds never broke,
And the air always cold,
Never mind;
I'll be alright;
You are my light...

There is no such thing,
No such thing
As a mistake here
In this life;
Everything is a light;
Everything is a light...

Dying Embers

Why can’t you look into his eyes
When you gaze deeply into mine?
It’s never pretty when you cry;
It’s never pretty…

I am confused by this adverse attraction
To watch the light in you die just a fraction
Every time…
I stay close by your side;
Take your warmth, take your pride;
I remain and I search for the answer…

I am a child born of love,
But the last embers are dying,
As I watch you softly crying
By the stove…

Why can’t you look into his eyes
When you gaze deeply into mine?
It’s never pretty when you cry;

It’s never pretty…
