You'Re a Light In the Dark

You’re a light in the dark
You climbed in my heart
Now I’m watching you 
Make a new start
You got me wondering 
Where I will stand
Will you disappear 
Like waves on the sand
What is it I got myself in
You became such a good friend
Now I don’t want it to end 
Somewhere back things changed
Now I want you more 
Then I’ve ever wanted someone before 
I can't keep you outta my head 
I’m lying here in bed 
Thinking of things you said 
Remembering last time I bled 
For a girl 
Damn it was so red
I didn’t want to like you 
But you gave me no choice 
From the moment you smiled
To the sound of your voice
You’re addicting like a drug 
From the first time I gave you a hug
Now I’m whispering to God 
In the dark 
In the night 
In my head 
In my heart
Don’t pull me apart
Don’t let me get caught
With my heart on the floor
I’m gonna live life 
Take a chance
Like I don’t care anymore
