Record Tracklist

  1. Brightest Light in the Room -:-- / -:--

Thought I had it figured out, when out of the blue
Everything got turned around in light of you
Turns out I’ve been walking blind
So now that I’ve discovered sight
Pardon if I stare

What am I supposed to do?
You’re the brightest light in the room
Everything else just fades away
And I can’t avert my helpless gaze

If I could lay my eyes upon you just tonight
It might be enough to light up every night
Across the deserts and over oceans
You will be my spark of hope
And you will be my prayer

What am I supposed to do?
You’re the brightest light in the room
Everything else just fades away
And I can’t avert my helpless gaze
When you’re out of view
I’ll fix my eyes upon the moon
‘Cause it makes the darkness not so hard
The same thing you do within my heart

These crazy days can shake the strongest faith
But I see the way when I’m standing next to you
