Hurts - Only You lyrics

When the night is young but it makes you feel much older And you come towards each waking hour of life When the days go by but the darkness lingers longer And before you know it life is one long night But when I close my eyes I see you standing before me And if you take my hand Ill leave it all behind Because only you can set me free So hold me close just like the first time Flashing lights illuminate your halo

And my pounding heart beats thunder like a drum When we used to dance we never cast a shadow Because there was only you and me when we were young And in this sea of scars the first cut is the deepest No matter where you are Ill always think of you Because only you can set me free So hold me close just like the first time Show me how it used to be Because only you can set me free Chorus
