Lyric

Until the last light

I will remember you

The sky was folding into blue

Above the water, cold and still

You held my hand like morning could

Wait a little longer if it will

We did not know what time would take

We only knew what we could give

A quiet promise in the dark

A little light that learned to live

If the night comes down

If the world lets go

There are things the heart keeps holding

More than words can show

Until the last light leaves the sky

Until the tide forgets the shore

I will carry what you gave me

Like a song behind the door

If everything we know must fade

If all we have is passing through

Let the final color stay

Long enough to lead me back to you

The wind was moving through the glass

Like distant voices from the sea

I saw the future in your eyes

And all the roads we would not reach

I used to fear the empty space

The part where every story ends

But love can live beyond the place

Where two hands finally lose their grip

If the stars go out

If the road turns cold

There are names the heart remembers

Even when we let them go

Until the last light leaves the sky

Until the tide forgets the shore

I will carry what you gave me

Like a song behind the door

If everything we know must fade

If all we have is passing through

Let the final color stay

Long enough to lead me back to you

I won’t call it goodbye

If a part of you remains

In every quiet sunrise

In every after-rain

I won’t ask the dark

To give back what it took

I will only keep the light

The way you taught me to look

Until the last light leaves the sky

Until the tide forgets the shore

I will carry what you gave me

Like a song behind the door

If everything we know must fade

If all we have is passing through

Let the final color stay

Long enough to lead me back to you

Until the last light

I will remember you

Not as something gone

But as something true
