Brendan O'Brien - The Light Behind Your Eyes lyrics

[Verse 1] So long to all of my friends Everyone of them met tragic ends With every pa**ing day I'd be lying if I didn't say That I miss them all tonight And if they only knew what I would say [Chorus] If I could be with you tonight I would sing you to sleep Never let them take the light behind your eyes One day I'll lose this fight As we fade in the dark Just remember you will always burn as bright [Verse 2] Be strong and hold my hand Time comes for us, you'll understand We'll say goodbye today And we're sorry how it ends this way If you promise not to cry Then I'll tell you just what I would say [Chorus] If I could be with you tonight I would sing you to sleep Never let them take the light behind your eyes I'll fail and lose this fight As we fade in the dark Just remember you will always burn as bright The light behind your eyes The light behind your [Bridge] Sometimes we must grow stronger and You can't be stronger in the dark When I'm here, no longer You must be stronger and [Chorus] If I could be with you tonight I would sing you to sleep Never let them take the light behind your eyes I failed and lost this fight As we fade in the dark Just remember you will always burn as bright The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes [Outro] The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes The light behind your eyes
