Moonlight on an empty side of the bed Echoes of your name still ringing in my head Coffee gets cold, the silence feels like lead But I’m breathing, I’m still breathing Every crack in my heart lets a little light through Every tear on my face is a promise overdue This ache is slow, but it’s teaching me to feel Turning broken into beautiful, turning wounds into real I was lost in the dark, now I’m learning how to heal There’s light after the ache, light after the ache Rain tapping gently on the window pane Washing yesterday down like an old refrain I smile at a stranger, let myself feel the pain ‘Cause feeling it means I’m alive again I don’t need to rush, don’t need to run I just need someone who sees where I’ve come from Someone who stays when the night feels long Someone like you, singing this song This ache was slow, but it taught me how to feel Turning broken into beautiful, turning scars into steel I was lost in the dark, now I’m reaching for what’s real There’s light after the ache, yeah light after the ache Light after the ache… I see it in your eyes Light after the ache… you’re already here with me tonight
