Younger, Brighter

Give me a kiss goodbye I will try not to cry Let me lie down by your side for a little while Hold me tight through the night Look me right in the eye Oh my, don't let me get away this time Nobody knows where we go When we die Is heaven a heart or a home It's days like this When I feel the rain on my shoulder And I have to stop and wonder Am I even getting older Or am I getting younger It's days like this When I feel the fog is lifting And my load's a little lighter And I notice something shifting And the world's a little brighter And the world's a little brighter When I was just a child Honey-eyed, open wide I'd give my all in the shape of a smile Sparks would fly from the fire That I kept lit inside Heating our home all around from the inside We left our home for a new life, far away My heart was left in the old one It's days like this When I feel the rain on my shoulder And I have to stop and wonder Am I even getting older Or am I getting younger It's days like this When I feel the fog is lifting And my load's a little lighter And I notice something shifting And the world's a little brighter And the world's a little brighter Nobody knows where we go when we die Is heaven a heart or a home in the sky Sometimes it feels like I'm living my whole life Living inside of a circle of goodbyes We left our home for a new life My heart was left in the old one
