I'm sending a letter
To the younger me
I'm hoping it gets through
The halls of your memories
And one day you'll find it
When you think you lost your way
And maybe you'll find it
And this is what it will say
♪
Don't waste a second living in the past
Don't think the years are all the best you've had
Dreams glide on water down a one-way path
Time rules the river and you can't go back
♪
Don't trust the promise of a president
Don't buy the water if it's heaven sent
So love who you love and don't you dare repent
It's ink on a page from no godly hand
You never know whenever it's your last
Days keep turning into nights real fast
We all face the dark, so keep your light on
We all face the dark, so keep your light on

We gotta keep on dancing, put the wheels in motion
'Cause baby, we're the lightning on a raging sea
Throw me out a line, yeah, you pull me closer
So keep your light on, light on me
So keep your light on me
So keep your light on, light on me
Don't be afraid to see the world alone
Don't think you need to call a house your home
The heart lays, the soil tells you where to grow
Stars glow and guide you where you'll need to go
In time, you'll know what love is
It's all about forgiveness
We all face the dark
We all face the dark
