The Weight of Light

Arrangement: © Preston Ni. Copyright © Preston Ni. All rights reserved. This song is about the quiet tension of love and impermanence. [Verse] I saw your face in the morning glow. The way the sun kissed you, soft and slow. I reached for words, but they fell like rain. Fingers trembling, I tried again. [Prechorus] If I could hold the silence tight, Would it carry us through the night? [Chorus] The weight of light— It bends, It breaks. It pulls us close, Then drifts away. We’re caught between the dark and day. The weight of light, It makes us stay. [Verse 2] The world spins fast, But our steps are still, Climbing a mountain that bends to our will. You spoke of dreams that you’d never find, But they’re etched in the corners of my mind. [Prechorus] If I could paint the sky in blue, Would it show the shape of you? [Chorus] The weight of light— It bends, It breaks. It pulls us close, Then drifts away. We’re caught between the dark and day. The weight of light, It makes us stay. [End]
