"Dark To Light" lyrics

"Dark To Light"

It's over before it ends
Why doesn't anybody tell you that?
No phoenix in the flames
There's only empty photographs
Is there anything that I can do?

I wish you could
See how you look
In my eyes
One more time
Would it make a difference?
Would it make you smile?
Could it bring you from dark to light?

You told me to carry on
But I never listen to what you tell me
And I can't carry this weight for long
But I'm not over it already
Is there anything that I can do?

I wish you could
See how you look
In my eyes
One more time
Would it make a difference?
Would it make you smile?
Could it bring you from dark to light?
From dark to light

Don't go anywhere
I can't follow
Don't go anywhere
I can't follow
Don't go anywhere
I can't follow
You know that I'll be by your side

I wish you could
See how you look
In my eyes
One more time
Would it make a difference?
Would it make you smile?
Could it bring you from dark to light?
From dark to light

From dark to light
From dark to light
Would it bring you from dark to light?
From dark to light

Speaking about this track, Louis Tomlinson said, "That's one I don't want to go into like proper, proper detail about really, but it definitely came from a very sentimental and heartfelt place. But also sonically the album really needed a song like that. The album reflects my past few years and my attempt to maintain a positive outlook despite everything."
