You Own The Only Light by Harry Chapin

I listen to the wind girl As you sleep by my side

The weather's getting colder So much harder now to hide

I confess I'm worried girl 'Cause as we fill up our days

For all the dreams we said we'd live We watch them slip away

So I hold you like an anchor

I hold you in the night

You're all that I can count on

You own the only light

And I hold you like an answer

The only one that's right

For when I'm lost in darkness

You own the only light

You see I think we know we're loosing it

That easy dream is gone Like everyone we fool ourselves

And say we're holding on But I know I can't return again

You never can go home Though with you here I still am lost

At least I'm not alone

And I hold you like an anchor

I hold you in the night

You're all that I can count on

You own the only light

And I hold you like an answer

The only one that's right

For when I'm lost in darkness

You own the only light

Oh don't you ever take away your light

Don't you ever leave me with your light

Don't you ever take away your light

Or else never let there be another night

We traveled hard to get here girl

But now our traveling's done

And of all the answers I have found

You're the only solid one

And I'm frightened how I need you now

But I can't wall in my heart

And with you is how I hope to end

And with you now I start

And I hold you like an anchor

I hold you in the night

You're all that I can count on

You own the only light

Yes I hold you like an answer

The only one that's right

For when I'm lost in darkness

You own the only light
