Shine A Light

Late at night alone
I was hoping you would show
Just waiting for you
Trying to catch a ride
Out here on my own
There ain't nowhere else to go
I've checked in all the places you could hide
Waiting there alone
I was hoping you would come walk behind
Cause I don't wanna stay
Out here on my own
I was hoping you would show up behind
We're headed the same way
It's all I want
It's all I'm dreaming
To keep you here forever
If I had you for my own
I would never let go
But everyone can see how hard I try
I've never been so bold
But these feelings gotta go
I never could've dreamed it'd pass me by
The trail's gone cold
And all the days are
Shine a light
And lead me back your way
The story's now told
The curtains unfold
Make your bed and make sure that it stays
It's all I want
It's all I'm dreaming
To keep you here forever
