When The Lights Go Down

I was broken on a cold July
Empty roads and sleepless nights
Everybody said love fades away
But then your eyes pulled me from the rain

You touched the scars I tried to hide
Like you could see my soul inside
And for the first time in so many years
I didn't feel alone in here

Oh, your voice
It sounded like a prayer
And every fear I carried
Started disappearing there

So when the lights go down
And this whole world turns dark
I'll still be holding on
To every beat inside your heart

If tomorrow falls apart
And the stars forget to shine
I'll stand beside your shadow
If you stand beside mine

Oh
This love was heaven sent
And I would choose you
Again and again

We ain't perfect, we got cracks and smoke
A thousand dreams that almost broke
But somehow every road led back to you
Like angels knew what we would do

And if my voice grows weak with time
Promise me you'll still be mine
'Cause every song I'll ever sing
Starts where your heartbeat begins

So when the lights go down
And this whole world turns dark
I'll still be holding on
To every beat inside your heart

If tomorrow falls apart
And the stars forget to shine
I'll stand beside your shadow
If you stand beside mine

And if they ask me what true love means
I'll point to your eyes in the crowd
'Cause you saved a man nobody saw
And you made his soul sing loud

When the lights go down
I won't be afraid
'Cause even in the silence
Your love remains

Oh
You're the reason
I still believe
