Mason Jennings - The Light (Part Ii) lyrics

And regardless in the evening

a light is thrown by the setting sun

It speeds along this vast familiar

silently crosses everyone

It's the light that's changing

It's the light that's changing

It's the light that's changing

It's only the light

Across the gardens, across the schoolyards

Across the chapels where lovers have leapt

Across the table in our old kitchen

Across the cities where our future slept

It's the light that's changing

It's the light that's changing

It's the light that's changing

It's only the light

What can I do to defy you?

What can I do to deny you?

'cause I want no part of this breaking

This is a hurtful mistake you are making

And to me this love was true and shining

These years were real and defining

Please don't forget how much I meant to you

When you are redefined by someone new

Across what's left of these old places

Across the playgrounds where old friends play

Across the lines on familiar faces

Across the nothing that we say

It's the light that's breaking

It's the light that's breaking

It's the light that's breaking

It's only the light
