[Verse 1]

I can run baby and tell you what I've seen

Tell you who I am deep down and where I've been

It's simpler for me to stay behind a screen

Cause the screen casts shadows on my face like a dream

And I don't want you in, no I don't want you in

Cause I don't think you'll like what you see when you're in

So keep weaving and don't complicate things

And this way everything we have is in sync

Cause if you come inside and rotate on my axis

You're gonna get thrown off ain't no practice

I move a little to quick and neurotic

Fundamentalist lover call me fanatic

I live my live like a box in the attic

All the good stuff inside--come grab it

All the skill I have to show and set free

And I'm the only person really can't see

So what you gonna do with the man in this dark?

Bring out the candles or run 'fore it starts?

We got our whole life ahead of us yet

So make a choice now: stay with or hedge bets

Cause I love ya

And I need you

[Hook]

(You are my light)

You damn near ran the distance

Now I'm used to your persistence (you are my light)

I ain't got no more resistance

Got inside and warmed my system (you are my light)

My life without you is like day without night

Sun without light (x3)

(You are my days)

You damn near ran the distance

Now I'm used to your persistence(you are my weeks)

I ain't got no more resistance

Got inside and warmed my system (you are my dreams)

My life without you is like day without night

Sun without light (x3)

[Verse 2]

Now we can fight baby and run for the hills

Scraps make us stronger, the ones that don't kill

And some of them have almost come close

Vegas, '07 we almost touched toes, we almost bumped heads

We almost screwed up, dangerous moves, fueled by themselves

Instances, we make excuses, instances, craziness

What I'm gonna put this all down to

Is the fact I can't live without you

And I doubt you could live without me

And baby I know I'm like the air you breath

So what we're a little high strung

Forget what they say don't listen to no one

We're allowed to be a little bit dumb

Otherwise what's the point of being young?

I wanna get my mistakes all done now

So the fool in my system can quit and run out

So he can fade and I can put him to sleep and he can live in the ink like a ghost in my (dream dream dreams)(x4)

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

Yo!

And then the moral of the lesson that I'm stressin' to you

We got a lot of guessin' to do

I don't know the future and neither do you

But I kind of the like the fact that everything's new

It's like a whole new planet coming into the light

Looking through the scope trying to figure it right

Aiight, but what does that mean for tomorrow?

I don't know but I'll be there to follow

I know I said a lot of stuff that was hollow

I made a lot of promises I never did follow

Them up, but right now I'm summing it up

I got some good intentions whether or not

They seem to come true been a little uncouth

Been a little bit rude, sometimes it's true

Baby whatever I can do to show you I love you

I won't ever judge you

So we can slipstream out of the lip stream

Of anyone trying to take away from the mystery of life

Telling us we're just not right for each other

Forget them my

(Brown eyed lover)(x4)

You are (my light)(x3)

You are (my life)(x3)

You are my light

You are (my days)(x3)

You are (my weeks)(x3)

You are my dreams

My life without you is like day without night

Sun without light (x3)

You been there ran the distance

Now I'm used to your persistence

I ain't got no more resistance

Got inside and warmed my system

My life without you is like day without night

Sun without light (x3)
