I take a breath Try and slow down my heart From pounding into my head No breath is deep enough Long enough, take shallow ones instead Sum up the courage To step into the light Shines bright like you The warmth, the glow Is the warmth of your smile A tender embrace Feels real for a while Numbed by the pain Overcome by the joy Singing with purpose And reason I try to employ My finger tingle They're all slightly numb I concentrate, concentrate, concentrate Biting the tip of my thumb So I know it's real And I step into the light With you by my side Into the light Ooooh It's warm in the light It's so bright here in the light Want to collapse And fall to the ground Open my mouth Somehow the right sounds Spill out, pour out And I tear my heart out Should be out of tears But somehow I'm not Thrilled by the need to make you proud God I hope you're proud For stepping into the light With you by my side Here in the light Oooh It's warm in the light Shines bright here in the light I step into the light Now I've found it I hold on tight I take a breath
