Too Much Light - The Weeks

Show us a town and lay waste to it

Show him exactly what patience meant

Don’t mind the distance don’t mind the cost

Just tell the driver to drop us off

Never quite knew what you’d become

Grow up soft and toughen up

Grandma said you are heaven sent

Then ask you if you knew what heaven meant

I wanna change this body

I wanna paint my face up

Wish I could stand up for you

But I’m not that tough

All I have I have because of you

Too much light for this whole world to lose

Bless yourself that’s all that you can do

All I have I have because of you

Always watching what you say

Look around make sure it’s safe

Never quite have been yourself

Always felt like someone else

It gets better every day

Grow up fast and move away

Wish I was there so I could help

Cause I couldn’t do that by myself

I wanna change this body

I wanna paint my face up

Wish I could stand up for you

But I’m not that tough

All I have I have because of you

Too much light for this whole world to lose

Bless yourself that’s all you can do

All I have I have because of you
