Take me back to the light

Verse 1

You called at a quarter past nine

Said the summer was over too soon

I laughed at the crack in your voice

Then I danced in the middle of June

Pre-Chorus

Every word that you gave me

I keep it folded and small

Every promise you made me

I hang it up on the wall

Chorus

Take me back to the light

Take me back to the light

Where we swore we would never grow old

Say my name in the night

Say my name in the night

And the story is yours to be told

Post-Chorus

Ah-ah, ah-ah

Take me back to the light

Ah-ah, ah-ah

Say my name in the night

Verse 2

I found your letter again

In the pocket of my winter coat

You wrote that you hated goodbyes

And you signed it with half of a note

Pre-Chorus

Every word that you gave me

I keep it folded and small

Every promise you made me

I hang it up on the wall

Chorus

Take me back to the light

Take me back to the light

Where we swore we would never grow old

Say my name in the night

Say my name in the night

And the story is yours to be told

Post-Chorus

Ah-ah, ah-ah

Take me back to the light

Ah-ah, ah-ah

Say my name in the night

Bridge

So hold me like a melody

Simple and slow

Hold me like a melody

Never let go

Chorus

Take me back to the light

Take me back to the light

Where we swore we would never grow old

Say my name in the night

Say my name in the night

And the story is yours to be told

Post-Chorus

Ah-ah, ah-ah

Take me back to the light

Ah-ah, ah-ah

Say my name in the night
