Without the Dark We Wouldn'T See the Stars

The skies light up with hope and joy tonight.
Past dues are paid with pieces of my heart.
I've tunneled through and finally seen the light.
This love delights me with a brand new start.

Without the dark we wouldn't see the stars.
And starlight led you to my broken door.
Erasing pain and healing all my scars.
I know now what this heart is beating for.

The music of your kiss is all I sing.
A paradise on earth is where I live.
Fragments of the moon are what you bring.
Peace deep in my soul is what you give.
