I met her in the moonlight She lit up a cigarette and walked up to me Asked me what I was doing With the rest of my life and if I was free I felt her gentle heartbeat Faint enough that she could still exist It whispered to my soul In a language my heart couldn't resist She stood there in a long dress But it was her soul i seen first If I love her at her best I'll love her at her worst When the light cant be found I squeeze a little tighter She is the roaring flame And I am just her lighter She had felt so much That she started to feel nothing at all Her eyes had a gravity Theres nothing I could do to stop the fall She was asking for my help It came from everything that she held within I knew I could hear it In the quiet, the whisper drifted to me in the wind She stood there in a long dress But it was her soul i seen first If I love her at her best I'll love her at her worst When the light cant be found I squeeze a little tighter She is the roaring flame And I am just her lighter I see you on your dark days When the world is heavy and you struggle to cope I try to be your sunshine, the pinprick of light that can bring hope She knew that night i met her She seen something that took me time That i held her missing piece And she was the one that held mine She stood there in a long dress But it was her soul i seen first If I love her at her best I'll love her at her worst When the light cant be found I squeeze a little tighter She is the roaring flame And I am just her lighter
