[Verse 1] The sky turns apricot slow Over the river road I keep your hand in mine While the gold lays low Dust on the window glass Turns into little fire We leave the hurt behind And walk a little higher [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel it now? The edge of the day Everything dark melts down When we drift that way [Chorus] Light me up Light me up We are the rising sun (oh-oh) Light me up Light me up Take me where the heavens run (take me higher) [Verse 2] Bare feet in cooling sand I trace the shining line Your voice is a ribbon Pulling me through time Every broken shade Turns soft in the glow We were made for this To let the bright wind blow [Pre-Chorus] Can you feel it now? The edge of the day Everything dark melts down When we drift that way [Chorus] Light me up Light me up We are the rising sun (oh-oh) Light me up Light me up Take me where the heavens run (take me higher) [Bridge] And when the night leans in We carry it home A path made of ember dust A road made of gold [Chorus] Light me up Light me up We are the rising sun (oh-oh) Light me up Light me up Take me where the heavens run (take me higher)
