Arkells – Come To Light Lyrics

For a second there I felt peace and calm
the underpass would keep us from harm¹
and the wipers moved like some waving arms
We were flashing headlights at coming cars²

But up in the distance, even in the dead of night
if we could make it to the morning, we can get things right³
It’s been a tough go lately, I hate choosing sides
What we do in the darkness, will come to light⁴

In times of fear, you shelter me
and you hold me close, so tenderly⁵
Now with my headphones on, as I fall asleep
you’re my barricade from intruding dreams⁶

But up in the distance, even in the dead of night
if we could make it to the morning, we can get things right
It’s been a tough go lately, I hate choosing sides
What we do in the darkness, will come to light

Silence fell, when I picked up
Those words hit me hard, like a one two punch⁷
So I went home to face the storm
and the thought of you keeps me warm⁸

But up in the distance, even in the dead of night
if we could make it to the morning, we can get things right
It’s been a tough go lately, I hate choosing sides
What we do in the darkness comes to light
When everything went wrong, you’re keeping my head on
And in time, the things that hurt today will begin to fade away⁹
