Light Up the Dark by Gabrielle Aplin Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't have to mention
That I saw you today
I shone the sun into your eyes
And you don't always have to question
Why there's pleasure and pain
Because there's no truth for you to find
[Verse 2]
I'm drawing perfect circles
'Round the life that we could share
And what is ours is ours to keep
I know the thing you want the most
You hide it over there
Safe at the dark end of the street
[Chorus]
When the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
[Verse 3]
There's so little I'm afraid of
When it comes to an end
But I can't leave you on your own
When your chaos turns to silence
And your enemy's your friends
I will roll away the stone
[Chorus]
When the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
When the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
[Chorus]
And when the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
[Outro]
Light up the dark in you
I don't have to mention
That I saw you today
I shone the sun into your eyes
And you don't always have to question
Why there's pleasure and pain
Because there's no truth for you to find
[Verse 2]
I'm drawing perfect circles
'Round the life that we could share
And what is ours is ours to keep
I know the thing you want the most
You hide it over there
Safe at the dark end of the street
[Chorus]
When the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
[Verse 3]
There's so little I'm afraid of
When it comes to an end
But I can't leave you on your own
When your chaos turns to silence
And your enemy's your friends
I will roll away the stone
[Chorus]
When the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
When the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
[Chorus]
And when the devil's waiting
Down by the river calling out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
And when the flood is over
And all the love is pouring out
I wanna be
The one to light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
Light up the dark in you
La-light up the dark in you
[Outro]
Light up the dark in you
