Lyrics
please tell me what you see in me i need you to comfort me everything that I believed is only shadows now when i hold them up to you my illusions shattered on the ground oh, oh.. love's sacred comes and goes without a sound you chase it, hold on, it fades away i don't want to be the one to wake up at the end to find i've been missing all along teach me how to love 'cause I have never been i'm in the dark searching for the sun oh, oh... if i light a candle each and every night take away the darkness in my mind only your love can make me shine oh, oh...
