[Verse 1] You found me at the shore With salt on both our hands We watched the dark come soft Then the first spark in the sand Your voice said, "Keep on" Mine said, "I know the way" We followed that thin gold line Through the ash into day [Pre-Chorus] And every step got higher Every fear turned small We were made for motion Made to rise through it all [Chorus] We are the light We are the light Carry me on Carry me on We are the light We are the light Over the dawn Over the dawn [Verse 2] Glass rain on the windows Distant drums in the air You turned your face to the sky Like you knew I'd meet you there The road kept changing color Blue to gold to white But your hand fit in my hand Like it knew the flight [Pre-Chorus] And every step got higher Every fear turned small We were made for motion Made to rise through it all [Chorus] We are the light We are the light Carry me on Carry me on We are the light We are the light Over the dawn Over the dawn [Bridge] Close your eyes, breathe in Let the shadows fade Hear our names in the distance Like a blessing made When the world goes quiet We'll still burn bright Two hearts in the ascent Turning night to light [Chorus] We are the light We are the light Carry me on Carry me on We are the light We are the light Over the dawn Over the dawn [Outro] Higher Higher We are the light We are the light
