The Light in Your Name Lyrics

[Verse 2: Jack Barnett]
When I row out the air and sea become one thing
Until I reach the mouth

[Refrain: Jack Barnett]
And though the waves will hit
Don't let them pull you away

[Chorus: Jack Barnett & Elisa Rodrigues, Both]
Can't you see it moving like ghosts dancing
All the light in your name
Pick a colour I'll fade into
Is dreaming further or closer?
I will be waiting

[Post-Chorus: Jack Barnett]
You had me pasted over
I'll hold you nearer still

[Outro: Jack Barnett & Elisa Rodrigues]
You have led me out here
I can't lead you back again
(I have led you out here
I can't lead you back again)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
