[Verse 1]
I was living in the background
Hands in my pockets
Head low
Every room felt like a blackout
Every day just one more echo
Then you walked in like sunrise
Color poured back into my eyes
You laughed
And the shadows scattered
Like they never even mattered (oh)
[Chorus]
You turned on the light in my world
Pulled me out the fire
Out the swirl
Held my shaking hands till they stilled
You’re the love that rebuilt what I killed
You chased every ghost from my mind
Left the darkest days far behind
Baby
You’re my dawn after night
You turned on the light
You turned on the light
[Verse 2]
I was wrestling with my monsters
Talking to the glass at 3am
Every heartbeat felt like thunder
Didn’t think I’d ever breathe again
But your voice cut through that storm cloud
Soft as a whisper
Brave and loud
You said
“You’re more than all your scars”
Now I’m finally reaching for the stars (yeah)
[Chorus]
You turned on the light in my world
Pulled me out the fire
Out the swirl
Held my shaking hands till they stilled
You’re the love that rebuilt what I killed
You chased every ghost from my mind
Left the darkest days far behind
Baby
You’re my dawn after night
You turned on the light
You turned on the light
[Bridge]
Look at me now
Laughing out loud
Dancing in places I once broke down
Every step I take
Every breath I make
Got your name written in the sound (oh)
[Chorus]
You turned on the light in my world
Pulled me out the fire
Out the swirl
Held my shaking hands till they stilled
You’re the love that rebuilt what I killed
You chased every ghost from my mind
Left the darkest days far behind
Baby
You’re my dawn after night
You turned on the light
You turned on the light (yeah)
