Bend The Light Lyrics - Singles - Fighting Gravity

(Lyrics, Music: Peterson) 

Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? 

Bend the light that only you can see 

Seen so many things slip away from me 

Stumbled home and cut my chin along the way 

Lately I can't get your voice out of my head 

Silly things you used to say to me 

Like why does life go by so fast and days just creep along 

Can I open up my expectations long enough 

to write this song, to look inside 

to open my hand 

Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? 

Bend the light that only you can see 

Come to me in the night 

Walk me into the silent water 

Cast away all your fright 

Sanctify the place so deep inside your darkness and be free 

and be free 

If a mountain follows a shooting star into the sea 

If a stranger leads you down another road 

Let it be my voice that warms you in the night 

Silly prayers on my wings to you 

So dance around the sun until I take my weakest breath 

In all that I embrace watch over me, surround my face with love, love, 

love 

Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? 

Bend the light that only you can see 

Come to me in the night 

Walk me into the silent water 

Cast away all your fright 

Sanctify the place so deep inside your darkness and be free 

and be free 

Carry me down to the water 

Carry me into the sound 

Carry me down to the water 

And I'll sleep with you under the ground 

under the ground 

under the ground 

So dance around the sun until I take my weakest breath 

In all that I embrace watch over me, surround my face with love, love, 

love 

Is it any wonder that I shine when I'm around you? 

Bend the light that only you can see 

Come to me in the night 

Walk me into the silent water 

Cast away all your fright 

Sanctify the place so deep inside your darkness and be free 

and be free 

You got to come to me in the night 

Walk me into the silent water 

Cast away all your fright
