Lyrics and translation
Original
When dawn comes back, I won't trust the light
'Cause everything it shines on has to say goodbye
When dawn comes back, I won't laugh at the sun
Or the waves when they bend and pretend that they won't come undone
We'll play it back in stereo, I want you by my side
Soak it up enough, and we can hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
We'll play it back in stereo, I want you by my side
Soak it up enough, and we can hold on to the light
Hold on to the light (yeah)
Well, if I take a picture, could I stop it in its tracks?
I know, I know there's nothin' I can do to bring it back
The light that comes in, well, it tends to just go where it wants
Why do I write it down? Will it ever be enough?
We lift up all the memories, can we carry on the love?
'Cause the light, when it bends as it falls through the lens
And pretends that it won't come undone
We'll play it back in stereo, I want you by my side
Soak it up enough, and we can hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
We'll play it back in stereo, I want you by my side
Soak it up enough, and we can hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
We'll play it back in stereo, I want you by my side
Soak it up enough, and we can hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
Hold on to the light
