Lyrics
Light After Dark
You and I, Felt so good to begin with didn’t we? Now it seems there’s far too many adverts inbetween. And we don’t speak, So we’re left in constant silence, It’s haunting me, So I’m ready now to fight this,
You have the shield , I’ll take the sword , I no longer love you , No longer love you , I’m not afraid of danger in the dark , I no longer love you , No longer love you .
You and I aren’t working , Burning on the bridges now , We’re trapped inside , Screaming , won’t somebody get me out .
You have the shield , I’ll take the sword , I no longer love you , No longer love you , I’m not afraid of danger in the dark , I no longer love you , No longer love you .
I no longer love you, no longer love you (x2)
And we don’t speak, so we’re left in constant silence And it’s haunting me so I’m ready now to fight this.
You have the shield , I’ll take the sword , I no longer love you , No longer love you , I’m not afraid of danger in the dark , I no longer love you , No longer love you .

Lyrics
Light After Dark
Today I feel the mood and I don't feel like talking oh I,
I wasn't ready to loose you, you're the first man to move me
You helped me feel alive, got me up from 9 to 5 oh I,
I could get through those days, with you on my mind
Got to try move on but I promise you
I will kiss your crown when life takes me down
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
Another face in the crowd, Oh people love to move now oh I,
I just can't feel the beat, cause my hearts fallen out,
Got to try move on but I promise you
I will kiss your crown when life takes me down
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
I've got my life in my hands and your love in my heart,
I've got my life in my hands and your love in my heart,
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
And it seems I've lived my life with you as my rhythm
And I know I'll find my feet after dreaming.
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
I've got my life in my hands and your love in my heart,
I've got my life in my hands and your love in my heart,
I'll save my last dance for you my friend
Today I feel the mood
I wasn't ready to loose you.
Today I feel the mood
I wasn't ready to loose you.

Lyrics
Light After Dark
Watching a fire,
Skipping under thunder,
Crossing a wire,
Connecting undercover,
Be mine,
It's a physical thing,
I wanna give you,
All the love I can give.
The love I can give.
Cause you make me surrender,
With you, I'm forced to surrender.
Burying rivers,
Drowning all our fears,
Burning the bridges,
Pushing all the gears.
Be mine,
It's a physical thing,
I wanna give you,
All the love I can give.
The love I can give.
Cause you make me surrender,
With you, I'm forced to surrender,
I'm letting go waving this white flag,
I've given up the fight,
Given up the fight,
Cause you make me surrender.
Loosing a battle,
Head into the shallow,
Let go of the handle,
Let us be alone now.
Cause you make me surrender,
Yes with you, I'm forced to surrender,
I'm letting go waving this white flag,
I've given up the fight,
Given up the fight,
Cause you make me surrender.
You make me surrender,
With you, I'm forced to surrender.

Lyrics
Light After Dark
I was told that loneliness was like spaces between the stars Well it's empty between these starry eyes I was told a dead man was heavier then a broken heart Am I dead now? My heart sure feels heavy
And I try not to feel it, oh I try not to feel it I was told that time tiptoes by,
Well I can hear his footsteps running past me,
I was told I had a face with nothing to fear, that's not the first thing to scare me.
And I try not to feel it, oh I try not to feel it It's so hard to believe it, But at the end of it all it's true,
You shot this bullet through my bones
you shot this bullet through my bones
You shot me down, down down I go, you shot me down down down I go.
I get up take the phone from my hands, the glass from my lips, the pictures from my fingertips, I stand up I walk round and round but I don't hear no sound, only the words, you last spoke to me.
And I try not to feel it, oh I try not to feel it It's so hard to believe it, But at the end of it all it's true,
You shot this bullet through my bones
you shot this bullet through my bones
You shot me down, down down I go, you shot me down down
down I go.

Lyrics
Light After Dark
He licks the paper, turns the page, Writes the spoken word again, Releases pools of untrapped blood, To camouflage what's understood, Wrapped up in a golden throne, He undresses overloads, Walks quietly to a distant place, Honest lies in washed out grace.
Oh, indicate we're locked in,
Oh, with the kings and queens We are the happiest pretenders, We are the happiest pretenders.
Dresses down towards the Tyne, He chases evening's wonder whys, Then misses hours, time again Sweeps him underneath its wings
Oh, indicate we're locked in,
Oh, with the kings and queens We are the happiest pretenders, We are the happiest pretenders
If they try to catch us out we'll chase them down, We'll chase them down, Cause we are the happiest pretenders. He wipes the crystal from his eyes, He hits the lights and leaves them dry, Undoes tomorrows unknown will, Lets it slide, Tastes the thrill (x2)
We are the happiest pretenders,
We are the happiest pretenders If they try to catch us out we'll chase them down, We'll chase them down, Cause we are the happiest pretenders.
He wipes the crystal from his eyes, He hits the lights and leaves them dry, Undoes tomorrows unknown will, Lets it slide, Tastes the thrill

Lyrics
Light After Dark
If I see you again will you remember me? If I see you again will you paint memories? Three long years never fly away Three small words speak again
Out of sight out of mind What a sweet lie , What a sweet lie Out of sight out of mind What a sweet lie , What a sweet lie
If I see you again will you understand? If I see you again this was not my plan?
Three long years never fly away Three small words speak again Out of sight out of mind What a sweet lie , What a sweet lie
Out of sight out of mind What a sweet lie , What a sweet lie (ah ah) Three long years never never fly away Three small words, please speak again Out of sight out of mind What a sweet lie , What a sweet lie
Out of sight out of mind What a sweet lie , What a sweet lie
(ah ah)
If I see you again will you remember me?

Lyrics
Light After Dark
I just don't believe I'm ready for today,
This paranoid pain is coming back again,
Oh that picture Moma placed,
By the window, how I hate my face,
And theres people all outside
behind the curtains silver lines
with all their lies
there all like mine, all like mine
But when the wind blows
I'll go, I'll go
And I will be released, break these chains set me free
And I will be released, break these chains.
I can think of brighter days,
they were golden in a way,
Words were not this grey,
But now prices will be paid, when I walk
In the path of all you guilty ones someday
Cause I cannot help my heart,
When it's beating in the dark, afraid next time,
I wont cry... I wont cry
And when the times change
I'll go away, I'm away
And I will be released, break these chains set me free
And I will be released, break these chains, break these chains
Like a pilot I will fly, way up in the sky
I'll be free, I'll be high high high
And I will be released break these chains, break these chains
So I can be released praying on my knees that I will be released
I will be released oh
I can be released praying on my knees that I will be released.
And I will be released break these chains set me free
And I will be released break these chains
I can think of brighter days, they were golden in a way
words were not this grey but I can break these chains

Lyrics
Light After Dark
Lately I've been facing a fall, Holding onto something that means nothing but war, I've been cutting connections, Causing the walls to build up around me, And faces to fade, Into blue, blue colours, I walk in shallow waters,
Should of gone my own way, But I didn't run just to hide, I ran for a better life, For a better life.
You're electric, You know you light up my world when it's hard to take, So lets run away. Although I know that you're electric I know that lightening won't strike twice in the same place So lets run away.
I want you to know this love, I don't regret what we've done or who we are No need to look for protection, Should have gone my own way, But I didn't run just to hide, I ran for a better life. For a better life,
You're electric, You know you light up my world when it's hard to take, So lets run away. Although I know that you're electric I know that lightening won't strike twice in the same place So lets run away.
I would fly but you're standing here Fixing my broken wings Try to mend, try to mend, This mess I'm in.
You're electric, You know you light up my world when it's hard to take, so lets run away. Although I know that you're electric I know that lightening won't strike twice in the same place So lets run away.
You're electric, you light up my world when it's hard to take So let's run away.

Lyrics
Light After Dark
Ain't Nobody (Can Love me like you do)
Ain't Nobody (Can Love me like you do)
Ain't Nobody (Can Love me like you do)
Ain't Nobody (Can Love me like you do)
V1 (Also V4)
Meet me in the red sky and dance with me , Let the valley change you , and the night set you free , It’s dusk in desert , it’s heaven at the gates , You are my desire , you are my escape .
Chorus
V2
Open up this moment , and bury me inside , I can see us changing , like the seasons over time , It’s silver on the river , reflections of your love , Drown me in this silence , we’ll never come undone .
Chorus Oh, hey.
V3
Shadows are falling , tomorrow’s closing in , Stay with me ‘till morning , open up your wings , I can hear your whispers calling out my name , Will you promise me you’ll steal the night again

Lyrics
Light After Dark
We're in one mind, We're in this together and we're facing a fight, We're not trying to be clever no, we're not trying to be cool, Sometimes it feels like it's just me and you,
We have one life to find higher ground, It can take us up it won't bring us down, It's forever, we're forever,
We'll change it all, We'll rise then we'll fall We'll love, then get lost, In the light after dark.
We're not alone now, You are the reason I am walking so tall, We're in the spotlight, We're on the floor, Wrapped in arms that make us feel secure,
We have one chance to go where we go You have shown me and now I have seen it i know it's forever oh, we're forever,
We'll change it all, We'll rise then we'll fall We'll love, then get lost, In the light after dark. (Ah Ah) You and me, we're the light after dark,
You and me, we're the light after dark,
We'll change it all, We'll rise then we'll fall We'll love, then get lost, In the light after dark, In the light after dark.

Lyrics
Light After Dark
If it be your will to speak, Of memories we often shared, Talk to me of days gone by, Think of love and not despair, And when I'm gone we'll meet again, As often do the closest friends, So dry your eyes and lay me down, I tell you this is not the end.
If someone else must take my place, For I'll be gone the longest time, I'll wait and I will understand, A heart of thorns must leave the mind, But when in time I see your face, The scars will fade the heart will mend, So dry your eyes and lay me down, I tell you this is not the end.
Oh from this day I wish you joy, From today I wish you peace, I hope that life will pass you by, As softly as the falling leaves, And when your heart is full again, Raise a glass to me my friend, And dry your eyes and lay me down, I tell you this is not the end. Oh dry your eyes and lay me down, I tell you this is not the end.
