About the song

Lyrics

Sleeping I grow cold
somewhere dreams unfold
there's a light outside
shining down
through my window
'cross this town

Evening
stars will be
from my window
I can see 
through the light
love came in

Light outside light outside

When you
hold me
I will know
heart beats
overflow

And the light outside
falls on me
from my window
I can see
through the light
love came in

Sleeping I grow cold
somewhere dreams unfold
there's a light outside
shining down
through my window
'cross this town
