I'll sing it one last time for you, then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right in all I've done

And I can barely look at you, but every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere, away from here

Light up, light up , as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear

Louder, louder, and we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak, I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

(Instrumental break - two bars)
To think I might not see those eyes, makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes I nearly do

Light up, light up, as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear

Louder, louder and we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak, I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

Slower, slower we don't have time for that
All I want's to find a....n e....asier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart, my dear, we're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for..... a... few days.... making up for all this mess

Ooohhhs and ahhhhhs

Light up, light up, as if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you, dear
