Keep My Lantern (Remix)

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] I left my boots by the door Still muddy from the rain Your name still on my phone But it won't ring the same The room keeps your shape Feels like you should still belong I touch the empty coat And I still wait too long [Pre-Chorus] If I could borrow one more dawn I'd hand you back the light But love don't get to bargain So I whisper through the night [Chorus] Go on, go on Keep my lantern Go on, go on Don't let it vanish Be strong, be bright Fill up the years Be happy here Be whole from here Go on, go on Keep my lantern [Verse 2] The doctor said your heart Went quiet in the dark I hated how the world Just kept its place apart But you were never made For a life stuck in pain So I call your brave smile When the hard days come again [Pre-Chorus] If I could borrow one more dawn I'd hand you back the light But love don't get to bargain So I lift you up tonight [Chorus] Go on, go on Keep my lantern Go on, go on Don't let it vanish Be strong, be bright Fill up the years Be happy here Be whole from here Go on, go on Keep my lantern [Bridge] I will not ask the sky To give you back to me I'll ask it for your laughter In everything I see In every open window In every good red seed In every day you dreamed of I will believe [Final Chorus] Go on, go on Keep my lantern Go on, go on Don't let it vanish Be strong, be bright Fill up the years Be happy here Be whole from here Go on, go on Keep my lantern
