Promise You'll Be The Light

[Raw Intro] (...) [Instrumental] (...) [Verse 1] I've got words stuck in my throat, like a heavy burden Afraid to let them out, afraid it isn't worth it The vulnerability, the fear, the pain What if you don't understand, what if you walk away? [Pre-Chorus] Trying to find the strength to ask If you're gonna say no say so fast [Chorus] Can I trust you with my heart? Can I show you who I am from the very start? Will you catch me if I fall apart? Promise you'll be the light when it gets dark [Instrumental] (...) [Verse 2] I've been burned before, by words that cut deep Left me weeping, left me speechless, left me weak But I know I can't keep it inside These questions get too heavy, they're eating me alive [Pre-Chorus] Trying to find the strength to ask If you're gonna say no say so fast [Chorus] Can I trust you with my heart? Can I show you who I am from the very start? Will you catch me if I fall apart? Promise you'll be the light when it gets dark [Instrumental] (...) [Bridge] I need to know if you're the one Who'll stand by me when the night is long Will you be the calm in my storm? A steady hand, a place that's warm [Instrumental] (...) [Final Chorus] So can I trust you with my heart? Can I show you who I am from the very start? Will you catch me if I fall apart? Promise you'll be the light when it gets dark [Outro] Promise you'll be the light when it gets dark [End] [Instrumental Fade] (...) [Solo Chorus] So can I trust you with my heart? Can I show you who I am from the very start? Will you catch me if I fall apart? Promise you'll be the light when it gets dark [Quiet Outro] Promise you'll be the light when it gets dark [End]
