"Hold Me to the Light" lyrics

"Hold Me to the Light"

I kept it in a corner
In a box just like a grave
There are things that I hold onto
In my way
And you took me to the ocean
'Cause you wanted me to pray
Wash my head in the waves
Let it cut like a blade in the water

Cleansed and now baptized
You're the only love I was after
We could handle any disaster
Every little touch is divine
You said we're alright
Sweeter words I couldn't have asked for
It's beautiful 'cause you could be mad at me
It took me seasons to trust you

Hold me to the light
I believe the words you say
You can change my mind
I'll let you inside
Hold me through the night
Just forgive me everything
I was in the dark
Trying to survive
Hold me to the light

I wonder at your patience
Till all my fears subside
Little sparks in your eyes
Catch the sun like a fire I was missing

Cleansed and now baptized
You're the only love I was after
It's beautiful 'cause you could be mad at me
It took me seasons to trust you

Hold me to the light
I believe the words you say
You can change my mind
I'll let you inside
Hold me through the night
Just forgive me everything
I was in the dark (The dark)
Trying to survive
Hold me to the light

Hold me to the light
I believe the words you say
You can change my mind
I'll let you inside
Hold me through the night
Just forgive me everything
I was in the dark
Trying to survive
Hold me to the light
