Lyrics

Shad ows fill an emp ty heart

as love is fad ing from all the things that we are

and are not say ing.

Can we see be yond the scars and make it to the dawn?

Change the col ors of the sky

and o pen up to the ways you made me feel a live,

the ways I loved you.

For all the things that nev er died to make it through the night, love will find you.

What a bout now,

what a bout to day?

What if you’re mak ing me all that I was meant to be?

What if our love

nev er went a way,

what if it’s lost be hind words we could nev er find?

Ba by, be fore

it’s too late,

what a bout now,

now that we’re here,

now that we’ve come this far?

Just hold on.

There is noth ing to fear

for I am right

side

you, for all

life

I am yours.

What a bout now,

what a bout to day?

What if you’re mak ing me all that I was meant to be?

What if our love

nev er went a way,

what if it’s lost be hind words we could nev er find?

What a bout now,

ba by, be fore

it’s too late,

ba by, be fore

it’s too late,

what a bout now?
