I'll sing it one last time for you
then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
in all I've done
And I can barely look at you
but every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
away from here

Light up, light up
as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder, louder
and we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
makes it so hard not to cry
and as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Light up, light up
as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Have heart, my dear
We're bound to be afraid
even if it's just for a few days
making up for all this mess

Light up, light up
as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
