[Verse 1] I’ve been walking through the noise all day Carrying words I never got to say Every face is moving way too fast Like everybody’s running from the past Then you’re standing in the doorway light And all the heavy things begin to feel alright You don’t ask me where I’ve been You just pull me close and let the silence in [Pre-Chorus] We don’t need to fix the world tonight We just need a little time [Chorus] When the lights go down And the city fades away I can hear your heartbeat Saying everything you never say When the lights go down And there’s nowhere left to run I remember who I am I remember where I’m from Right here in your arms When the lights go down [Verse 2] There were days I thought I’d lost the road Trying to be stronger than the weight I hold I kept smiling like I didn’t mind While a thousand little worries filled my mind But you know the cracks behind the smile You know when I’ve been hurting for a while And somehow every broken part Feels a little less broken where you are [Pre-Chorus] We don’t need to know what morning brings Tonight we’ve got everything [Chorus] When the lights go down And the city fades away I can hear your heartbeat Saying everything you never say When the lights go down And there’s nowhere left to run I remember who I am I remember where I’m from Right here in your arms When the lights go down [Bridge] Maybe we were never meant to have the answers Maybe love is learning how to stay When the room gets dark And the noise is gone You’re the one thing that remains So let the whole world turn without us Let tomorrow wait outside For a moment we are fearless For a moment we are alive [Final Chorus] When the lights go down And the city fades away I can hear your heartbeat Saying everything you never say When the lights go down And the night has just begun I remember who I am I remember what we’ve become No more hiding in the dark No more trying to be strong I know exactly where I belong Right here in your arms When the lights go down [Outro] When the lights go down I’m finally home
