Keeps the Light On

lyrics

Tell me that the earth
Will be here when I wake up
Oh and tell me will the stars keep shining

What will come of us
If we carry on like this
Frightened into frightening everything else?

Breaking is the first step to a new start
Better to see plainly all that I can

I build my joy out of the sorrow out of the marrow of imperfection
I build my joy a juxtaposition against a whole world of sad decisions
Thank the stars you’re here with me
To lay down and laugh on the living room floor
You recast the sad story, have me laughing til my belly is sore


And that keeps the light on
That keeps the light on
That keeps the light on

We must be poor of heart
To lose our only world
And yet we weep and work and feel it

I saw us as a child, looked into our raw hearts
It hurt to look but somehow also freed me

Breaking is the first step to a new start
Better to see plainly all that I can

I build my joy out of the sorrow out of the marrow of imperfection
I build my joy a juxtaposition against a whole world of sad decisions
Thank the stars you’re here with me
To lay down and laugh on the living room floor

You recast the sad story, have me laughing til my belly is sore

And that keeps the light on
That keeps the light on
That keeps the light on
