Lyric

Everybody stares at the golden child

The one they trust, the one with the perfect smile

Standing in the spotlight, shining so bright

You tell yourself, “I could never live that life”

Different world, too far away

So you turn your eyes and walk away

Dreaming small, hiding deep inside

Giving up before you even try

But every legend started out unknown

Every fire began with a spark alone

If you never let your spirit burn

How will the world ever see your glow?

Put your hand against your beating heart

Can you feel it calling in the dark?

There’s a light inside you waiting to ignite

A soul that’s born to shine tonight

Maybe it won’t light the whole wide sky

Maybe it won’t catch a million eyes

But even one warm light can change a life

And that’s enough to make the darkness die

Not every flame was made to rule the world

Not every hero needs a flag unfurled

Some lights burn for only one sweet face

One fragile smile they never want to fade

Nobody sees it, nobody knows

The quiet love behind that glow

But the warmth you give begins to spread

Like sunrise colors painted red

You don’t have to be a star above

To become somebody’s endless love

The strongest hearts are often found

In those who lift another from the ground

Put your hand against your beating heart

Can you feel it calling in the dark?

There’s a light inside you waiting to ignite

A soul that’s born to shine tonight

Maybe it won’t light the whole wide sky

Maybe it won’t catch a million eyes

But even one warm light can change a life

And that’s enough to make the darkness die

A light that protects

A light that remains

A light that keeps somebody smiling through the pain

You don’t need the world to scream your name

If one heart survives because you stayed

That beautiful smile

That feeling so true

Could be waiting somewhere because of you

So put your hand against your beating heart

Now the fire’s tearing through the dark

You were never born to fade away unseen

You were always more than what you dreamed

Some lights blaze across the endless night

Some lights guide one soul back to life

And the warmest flame the world will ever know

Is the one that helps another heart to glow

Can you see it now?

That gentle light in you

The smile you protect

Will shine forever too…
