The Ballroom Thieves - Lost In The Light

(originally by Bahamas)

I'm lost in the light
I pray for the night
To take me, to take you too

After so many words
Still nothing's heard
I don't know what we should do

So if someone could see me now
Let them see you

It was my greatest thrill
When we just stood still
You let me hold your hand 'til I had my fill

Even counting sheep
Don't help me sleep
I just toss and turn right there beside ya

So if someone could help me now
They'd help you too

They'd help you too
See you through
All the hard things we've all gotta do

'Cause this life is long
So you wouldn't be wrong
Being free, leaving me on my own

Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh...

When I held my own
Still I rattled your bones
I said some awful things and I take them back

If we would try again
Just remember when
Before we were lovers I swear we were friends

So someone could see me now
Let them see you

Let them see you
See you through
All the hard things we've all gotta do

'Cause this life is long
So you wouldn't be wrong
Being free, leaving me on my own

Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh
Ahh...
