[Intro]
Yeah, this one’s for the ones who’ve been through the storm
Hold on, keep your heart warm
[Verse 1]
Started from the smallest, silent cries
Lost my smile but I still rise
Mom's gone, but I keep her near
Memories we hold so dear
Dad's shadow, sometimes dark, sometimes light
Fighting battles in the night
His bottles, his pain, his fight
Wish I could turn back time, make it right
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear me? This is my plea
Hope you’re listening, can’t you see?
Love’s still burning, deep inside
Hoping someday you’ll survive
[Chorus]
Stop the drinking, change the story
We just want a little glory
He’s my father, I still love
Waiting for the signs above
If you hear me, hear this song
We’re all fighting, trying strong
Hope you find your way today
Love will keep the darkness away
[Drop]
Oh, oh, oh
Love will keep the darkness away
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
Years went by, I had to leave
Finding strength, I had to breathe
Still I wonder if he’s changed
Hoping that the pain's not the same
Memories of those rough days
Try to find a better way
Wishing love could heal all wounds
Hope he sees it someday soon
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear me? This is my plea
Hope you’re listening, can’t you see?
Love’s still burning, deep inside
Hoping someday you’ll survive
[Chorus]
Stop the drinking, change the story
We just want a little glory
He’s my father, I still love
Waiting for the signs above
If you hear me, hear this song
We’re all fighting, trying strong
Hope you find your way today
Love will keep the darkness away
[Bridge]
And I pray, for better days
Hope the pain just fades away
Love and time will heal the scars
You can reach us from afar
[Outro]
Yeah, love will keep the darkness away
Always, always
Hold on, love
Hold on, love
