(Verse 1)
I was folding paper maps on the 2 AM platform,
Tracing empty streets where I kept getting lost.
You came with two coffees, rain on the brim of your coat,
You laughed at the way I read the stars, and I forgot the cost.
You tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ear so light,
You turned my shadows into morning light.
(Pre-Chorus)
I didn't know how to ask for staying,
You answered with a quiet bravery,
And suddenly the air felt new…
(Chorus)
You're the light in my sky,
A single truth I can't deny.
When the city chills, you warm the night,
Guide me home with that steady light.
Oh, you're the spark beneath my skin,
The melody that pulls me in—
You're the light in my sky,
And I won't ever let you go.
(Verse 2)
Every heartbeat maps the echo of your name,
Your jacket on my chair, the way you hum that refrain.
You left a note beside my keys: meet me by the pier,
We watched the harbor breathing slow, the world felt close and clear.
You fold the world into small gestures, easy and kind,
You braided color through the quiet of my mind.
(Pre-Chorus)
I didn't know how to trust the morning,
But you learned the language of my warning,
And suddenly the day broke true…
(Chorus)
You're the light in my sky,
A single truth I can't deny.
When the night closes, you shine unworn,
Pull me back from places I was torn.
Oh, you're the spark beneath my skin,
The honest song that carries in—
You're the light in my sky,
And I won't ever let you go.
(Bridge)
There was a time I built my walls of paper, thin and high,
I read safe lines, I kept my hands inside.
Once an oak storm took the power, left me with a clock that lied,
I thought I'd have to face the dark alone that night.
But you stood in the doorway with your palm against the glass,
You chose to stay while thunder made the city pass.
I learned to call on someone else, to let the small things show—
I gave you every map I hid and watched the borders go.
(Final Chorus - Variation)
You're the light in my sky,
My compass when the compass dies.
When old fears rise like winter tides,
You hold the line, you keep the light.
Oh, you're the spark beneath my skin,
A promise I am learning to live in—
You're the light in my sky,
We won't let this go.
(Outro)
When the morning pulls us apart at dawn,
I'll still carry the shape of you like a song.
You're the light in my sky, and now I finally know—
With you, I'm never walking alone.
