Lyrics

Verse 1

Under covers with a beam of light

Finger shadows on the wall at night

Made a circus out of my bedroom floor

Couldn't wait to grow up anymore

Pre-Chorus

Now I'm standing in a room that's dark

Fumbling for the switch I knew by heart

Chorus

Flashlight

Where'd you go when I needed you most

Flashlight

I was never scared when I held you close

Flashlight

Shine a little light on the girl I used to be

Flashlight

Are you still out there somewhere watching over me

Verse 2

Built a fort with blankets and a chair

Whispered secrets to the dusty air

Had a map drawn with crayon marks

Leading straight to the places after dark

Pre-Chorus

Now the batteries have all run dry

And I'm reaching for a different kind of light

Chorus

Flashlight

Where'd you go when I needed you most

Flashlight

I was never scared when I held you close

Flashlight

Shine a little light on the girl I used to be

Flashlight

Are you still out there somewhere watching over me

Bridge

I keep searching every drawer

For the glow I felt before

But that circle on the ceiling

Only lives inside my feeling

Chorus

Flashlight

Where'd you go when I needed you most

Flashlight

I was never scared when I held you close

Flashlight

Shine a little light on the girl I used to be

Flashlight

Are you still out there somewhere watching over me

Outro

(Fading glow)

(Fading glow)

Mm-hmm

Mm-hmm
