Torchlight Missy Higgins

Torchlight on these shadows
Daylight to the black
I been holding onto something
But I'm giving it back
If I could reach out to you, dear
Reach back over time
If I could hold you
I'd tell that day, it'll be all right

But sometimes people let you down
And sometimes evil is a quiet town
Where nobody wants to hear your truth
And nobody wants to believe you
But I do, I do
Someone out there will, too

Torchlight in a locked room
Unwind and untangle this mess
If I could go back
I'd hide you somewhere they would never guess
'Cause you're a blank page right now
But they'll cover you in ink and black your heart out
If anybody tells you not to tell, don't listen
'Cause sometimes people let you down and
Sometimes the old kings are crowned
'Cause nobody wants to see the light
And nobody wants to believe you're right
But I do, I do
And someone out there will, too
Torchlight on you
