Reclaim the Light by Hollow Atlas <br /><br /><br />[Verse 1]<br />I lit the candles like it was an occasion<br />Cooked the thing you always said you loved<br />You came in tired, stopped inside the doorway<br />Said what's all this and almost smiled enough<br />I said just us and pulled you to the table<br />You set your phone down — that felt like a gift<br />We talked about the small things and the old things<br />And somewhere in the middle something lifted<br />[Pre-Chorus]<br />I know what I know<br />I saw what I saw<br />But tonight I'm choosing<br />Something before the fall<br />One more hour of ordinary<br />One more reach across the dark<br />Tonight I'm choosing you<br />Before we fall apart<br />[Chorus]<br />Reclaim the light<br />Just for one more evening<br />Reclaim the light<br />Even knowing what I'm knowing<br />Your laugh across the table like it used to land<br />Your hand inside my hand inside my hand<br />Reclaim the light<br />I know it isn't permanent<br />But God it's good tonight<br />Reclaim the light<br />[Verse 2]<br />We watched something we'd been meaning to for months<br />You fell asleep before the second half<br />I sat there in the blue light not quite watching<br />Just memorising everything you had<br />The way you breathe, the way your eyelids settle<br />The way you always sleep toward the wall<br />I thought — I'm going to miss this so completely<br />I thought — I'm going to miss you most of all<br />[Pre-Chorus]<br />I know what I know<br />I saw what I saw<br />But tonight I'm choosing<br />Something before the fall<br />One more hour of ordinary<br />One more reach across the dark<br />Tonight I'm choosing you<br />Before we fall apart<br />[Chorus]<br />Reclaim the light<br />Just for one more evening<br />Reclaim the light<br />Even knowing what I'm knowing<br />Your laugh across the table like it used to land<br />Your hand inside my hand inside my hand<br />Reclaim the light<br />I know it isn't permanent<br />But God it's good tonight<br />Reclaim the light<br />[Bridge]<br />I could wake you<br />Tell you everything I've seen<br />Tell you I've been standing<br />At the ghost meridian<br />I could wake you<br />Ask you where you went<br />Ask you if there's anything<br />Still worth the attempt<br />But you look so peaceful<br />And the night is almost gone<br />And some truths can wait<br />Until the morning comes along<br />So I pull the blanket<br />And I turn the last light out<br />And I hold you like I'm holding<br />Everything I'm losing now<br />[Final Chorus]<br />Reclaim the light<br />Just for one more evening<br />Reclaim the light<br />Even knowing what I'm knowing<br />Your laugh across the table like it used to land<br />Your hand inside my hand inside my hand<br />Reclaim the light<br />I know it isn't permanent<br />But God it's good tonight<br />Reclaim the light<br />[Outro]<br />
