Let my light in

Let My Light In

I didn’t get to be your first,

I couldn’t be there when you fell.

I wasn’t there to brace the cold,

or hold you close,

and cast my spell.

I couldn’t save you from the longing,

nor the lonely nights you faced.

In the dark, you were a stranger —but now our love has found its place.

So let me catch you when you’re weary,

when the day’s too much to bear.

Let my love heal when you’re teary,

and let the worry turn to care.

For I see you as you are

not what you give, or what you seek.

For I see you as the man who melts my heart and makes me weak.

For all your worries and your battles,

they are far behind you now.

Let my light in, turn the flame up,

And I’ll keep you warm somehow.
