歌词

[00:20.162] The very day you were born, your light shone bold in the dark
[00:23.864] The doctor said you had a hole in your heart
[00:25.983] I just knew that you were making room for a whole lotta heart
[00:28.463] And loved you from that day until your soul would depart
[00:31.280] You took your first breath upon my chest
[00:34.428] I built you a good nest before I left
[00:37.046] It wasn't that I never loved your mother
[00:39.408] But two happy homes are better than one that suffered
[00:42.645] Every regret in this life that I made
[00:44.541] Have been tempered by the strength in your eyes everyday
[00:47.300] I know that you never said that you'd like me to stay
[00:49.903] Still I'm sorry I neglected you while I was away
[00:52.666] You were eight when we headed to casualty
[00:54.634] And no child should face their death or mortality
[00:57.923] You taught me patience, strength and morality
[00:59.893] And I'd burdened this weight instead of you happily
[01:02.450] That night, you asked if you'd die from your sickness
[01:05.230] And why had it chosen your life out of millions
[01:08.901] You filled me with the pride I was missing
[01:10.668] Cause grown men cry, that lack your type of resilience
[01:13.534] Only when it's dark that the stars are bright
[01:15.560] For your fight, you gon' harbour these scars for life
[01:17.993] But you're a brave little soul, came in the cold
[01:20.992] Like a fighter, hope you find the same flame when you're old
[01:24.727] Fall asleep and lay with me
[01:29.006] We'll search the night for shooting stars
[01:34.998] If they can't take away your pain
[01:39.464] I'll take your hand, walk through the dark
[01:46.108] The dark
[01:48.723] The dark
[01:54.561] I wrote this while you slept in a hospital bed
[01:57.425] Know this, your breath at the cost of my breath
[01:59.905] I'd forgo this life, that you'd go on in my death
[02:02.476] If you'd know what its like to live long and regret
[02:04.802] So you could fight, you could shove, you could bleed and hurt
[02:07.504] You could cry, you could love, and your creed will work
[02:10.090] When your strides act dumb and you teethe your words
[02:12.670] It'll take a wife to become your sky, sea and earth
[02:15.415] But if these are things that you never see
[02:17.898] With no god, just me, it'll set you free
[02:20.500] And most others won't understand the hell in which you've been in
[02:23.861] Til' they wrestle with the demon
[02:25.806] But take heart to be brave, but first we fear
[02:28.294] The same heart, the same pain, you persevere, will serve you
[02:31.463] I know this world is of course unfair, and hurt you
[02:34.246] But these virtues are yours to bear
[02:36.333] I named you lionhearted the day you were born
[02:39.339] They say the night is darkest before the dawn
[02:41.770] I'll take your hand upon this path
[02:43.521] If you can light a spark, then we can find some calm in a raging storm
[02:47.144] Ain't nothing left to scare you see
[02:49.114] So we can live life and cherish every breath we breathe
[02:51.771] And no matter where you go, know we'll never leave
[02:54.357] Cos' even when we're gone, we're living in a memory
[02:56.836] So live on, live on
[02:58.676] Fall asleep and lay with me
[03:03.061] We'll search the night for shooting stars
[03:08.927] If they can't take away your pain
[03:13.345] I'll take your hand, walk through the dark
[03:19.101] Fall asleep and lay with me
[03:23.760] We'll search the night for shooting stars
[03:29.589] If they can't take away your pain
[03:34.168] I'll take your hand, walk through the dark
[03:40.020] The dark
[03:43.067] The dark
[03:58.167] And I'm sorry that I can't take your pain, or answer why
[04:02.574] I lay awake through darker skies
[04:05.174] I say your name, you cast a light
[04:07.686] Like a flame on a starless night
[04:09.916] And I, didn't know what was lost 'til you found me
[04:13.327] Didn't know what was locked in, without keys
[04:16.074] But we can walk across all these boundaries
[04:18.579] You and me, nothing here to stop you, you're now free
[04:21.061] So I wrote this to give you hope
[04:23.121] For every good thing in life you live to know
[04:25.659] They say cancer survivors are gifted though
[04:28.350] Let me know if that isn't so
[04:30.856]
