It's been a while since your smile reached for those eyes You say you're fine but I don't think I believe it You're treading water in a thunderstorm of lies And lately you can't shake that sinking feeling Ooh There's bright on the other side of that blue You and I know That I could live a lifetime in your light alone So don't you go and dim it And if that flame Turns to smoke I know where your heart is Strike a match Light a candle And curse the darkness Remember that beach house that we stayed at in manzanita We sipped on wine and swore we'd change the world Carefree and naive not a hundred bucks between us Hand on a hotel bible swear you're still that girl Ooh There's bright on the other side of that blue 'Cause you and I know That I could live a lifetime in your light alone Darling don't you go and dim it And if that flame Turns to smoke I know where your heart is Strike a match Light a candle And curse the darkness It's been a while since your smile reached for those eyes And I'll be right by your side until I see it You and I know That I could live a lifetime in your light alone Darling don't you go and dim it And if that flame Turns to smoke I know where your heart is Strike a match Light a candle And curse the darkness Strike a match Light a candle And curse the darkness
