There Is a Light Between Us

There is a light between us
I can feel it when you smile
Like the sun across the water
Breaking through the clouds a while

We don't need a thousand words
To tell us what we know
Some things live beneath the silence
Somewhere only hearts can go

And when you move a little closer
I can hear the whole world fade
Like the wind among the branches
Calling softly through the shade

There is a light between us
Burning quietly, burning bright
Like the moon upon the ocean
Like a fire in the night

There is a road beneath us
And the stars above our heads
Wherever life may take us
I'll be walking there with you instead

I have seen the morning rising
Through the windows of your eyes
I have felt the changing seasons
And the years go drifting by

The sea can keep its secrets
The mountains can keep their names
But every time I hold you
Nothing ever feels the same

And if the world should turn around us
If the ground should disappear
I'll remember how you found me
And I'll know that you are here

There is a light between us
Burning quietly, burning bright
Like the moon upon the ocean
Like a fire in the night

There is a road beneath us
And the stars above our heads
Wherever life may take us
I'll be walking there with you instead

Maybe love is not a promise
Maybe love is just a way
Of choosing someone every morning
And choosing them again each day

Like the trees that face the weather
Like the river finds the sea
We don't have to know tomorrow
You are here, and so am I

There is a light between us
Burning quietly, burning bright
Like the moon upon the ocean
Like a fire in the night

There is a road beneath us
And the stars above our heads
Wherever life may take us
I'll be walking there with you instead

There is a light between us
And I know it will remain
Through the summer, through the winter
Through the sunshine and the rain

There is a light
Between us

There is a light
And it leads us home
