Lyrics Missy Higgins

Missy Higgins

Torchlight

Torchlight on their shadows

Daylight to the black

I've been holding onto something but I'm giving it back

If I could reach out to you dear

If I could reach back over time

Well I would hold you and tell you that one day we'll be alright

But some times people let you down

And sometimes evil is a quiet town

Where nobody wants to hear your truth

And nobody's wants to believe you

But I do, I do and someone out there will too

Torchlight in a locked room

Unwind and untangle this mess

If I could go back I'd hide you somewhere they would never guess

Cause you're a blank page right now

But they'll cover you in ink and black your heart out

If anybody tells you not to tell, don't listen

'Cause sometimes people let you down

And sometimes the wrong kings are crowned

And nobody wants to see the truth

And nobody wants to believe you

But I do, I do and someone out there does too

Torchlight on you

Unwind and untangle this mess

Unwind and untangle this mess

Unwind and untangle this mess

And hold on tight we're gonna drag the dark into the torchlight
