I Need the Light

As the glare of the head lights cuts through the night
My thoughts turn to you and the ghosts in your life
I can feel the air shift as the rain turns to snow
And I drift through darkness alone

As I head up the highway from sea to the sky
Mountains ahead and the city behind
I can see we all fall from heights that we climb
And the path moves us forward in time

Go, I'll be fine
'Cause sparks burn out all of the time

One little snowflake on my tongue
There for a second, then gone
And underneath these winter skies
Stripped naked there's nowhere to hide
I'll pull the stars down from the night
'Cause I need the light

The heart wants to stay but the head says to run
Like frost on the glass clouds your view of the sun
As the icicles drip like the tears from your eyes
And the ache of your wanting floats by

Go, I'll be fine
'Cause sparks burn out all of the time

One little snowflake on my tongue
There for a second, then gone
And underneath these winter skies
Stripped naked there's nowhere to hide
I'll pull the stars down from the night
'Cause I need the light

One little snowflake on my tongue
There for a second, then gone
And underneath these winter skies
Stripped naked there's nowhere to hide
I'll pull the stars down from the night
'Cause I need the light
I need the light
