[Intro]
C Em Am Dm G
[Verse 1]
{Karl}
C Dm
I've spent a lifetime fumbling around
G F
scared of my shadow and too tightly wound
C Dm
Then both of you helped me to unwind my coil
G F C
and us three together put roots in the soil.
[Pre Chorus]
C Dm Em F
But the white walls, they had me surrounded
Dm Em
And the fear, oh my heart how it pounded
Dm G
Then the lanterns, brightly they've shone
Am
So their light and your love
F C
Yes, it helped me back home
[Chorus]
F
Love, though you're far away
C
I will not fear
Em Dm F
'Cause I close my eyes and it's like you're still here
C Dm
So I'll leave a lantern to help guide your way
Em Dm F
Up in the rafters day after day
C Dm
My mind, it my falter but my love is strong
C Dm F C
So I'll leave a light on for after you're gone
[Interlude]
Am G C Dm C
[Verse 2]
{Sapnap}
C Dm
I've been craving one day in the sun
F C
But when he betrayed me, my dreaming was done
C Dm
And I never thought that I'd find strength to stand
G F C
But then we stuck together and took back our land
[Pre Chorus]
C Dm Em F
And then one day you just disappeared
Dm Em
And my heart, how it filled with such fear
Dm G
Then love took my hand and it showed me the light
Am F C
So I'll search 'til i find you and make it alright
[Chorus]
F
Love you're so far away,
C
I'm filled with fear
Em Dm F
Waiting for signs that will tell me you're near
C Dm
So I'm lighting lanterns to help guide your way
Em Dm F
Up in the sky floating day after day
C Dm
I'm trying to find you and where you could roam
C Dm F C
I'm turning the lights on to help you find home
[Interlude]

[Bridge]
G
A boy born of fire
G
But your love, it burns
Em
Twisting and turning at night how it hurts

The memories, they're slipping
G
They're fading away
Em C G
When I see you next, will I still know your face?

For some kind of letter of proof you're still mine

Nobody ever kept me around

Down on my luck, that was how I was found

Love made me weak
D
But now I'll be strong

Leaving my past as I try to move on

Pathetically waiting for some kind of sign

You know what you did

I see all your stats floating up in the sky
Em G D
And I'm turning the lights off and saying goodbye.
