lyrics

It’s gonna be you one day and it’s gonna be me
And when we reach it the only thing that matters is the light we leave

It doesn’t matter how you grieve, it doesn’t matter what you believe
The only thing that matters is the light we leave

Leave your light with me, leave your light with me
Leave your light with me

Whether it’s a song you sing or a gift you bring when you leave your mark
We only got one life to leave a light when the night gets dark

Leave your light with me, leave your light with me
Leave your light with me

It’s a dark, dark world
It’s a simple choice

Leave your light with me, leave your light with me
Leave your light with me
Leave your light with me
