I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right, in all I've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere, away from here
Light up, light up, as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, Dear
Louder, Louder, and we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes, I nearly do
Light up, light up, as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, Dear
Louder, Louder, and we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Slower, Slower, we don't have time for that
All I want's to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads
Have heart, My Dear, we're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess
Light up, light up, as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, Dear
