lyrics
Life was hard and so we
Traded scares and war stories
And confessed it might be
Easier to not care
But that we just weren’t there.
Yet.
The road was cold and so we
Built a fire with the things
We’d decided we bring
To remind us of home.
Yea, that whole idea’s just gone
You are the light of the world
Like I wanted it to be
But this world is harder and colder
And it’s got me wondering if
Anything I do makes sense
Much less makes any difference
At all
Life was hard
The road was cold
All along it was just
You and me there in the throes
Maybe that’s all I need to know.
You are the light of the world
Like I wanted it to be
But this world is harder and colder
And it’s got me wondering if
Anything I do makes sense
But you here makes all the difference.
Traded scares and war stories
And confessed it might be
Easier to not care
But that we just weren’t there.
Yet.
The road was cold and so we
Built a fire with the things
We’d decided we bring
To remind us of home.
Yea, that whole idea’s just gone
You are the light of the world
Like I wanted it to be
But this world is harder and colder
And it’s got me wondering if
Anything I do makes sense
Much less makes any difference
At all
Life was hard
The road was cold
All along it was just
You and me there in the throes
Maybe that’s all I need to know.
You are the light of the world
Like I wanted it to be
But this world is harder and colder
And it’s got me wondering if
Anything I do makes sense
But you here makes all the difference.
