Lyrics
Verse 1
I was walking through the night with a heavy heart
Neon lights but I was falling apart
Every dream felt so far away
Like the sky forgot my name
Pre-Chorus
I was running from the echoes of my fear
Every shadow whispering “don’t stay here”
Then your eyes met mine in the crowd
And the silence suddenly got loud
Chorus
We found love in the dark
When I thought I’d lost my way
Your hands were a spark
Lighting up my broken days
In a world that felt so cold
You were fire in my bones
Yeah, we found love in the dark
And it turned my heart to gold
Verse 2
I was drowning in a million doubts
Trying to breathe, trying to get out
Every wall I built inside
You saw through with gentle eyes
Pre-Chorus
I was scared of hoping again
Of believing in a “what if then”
But you pulled me into the light
And taught my soul how to fight
Chorus
We found love in the dark
When I thought I’d lost my way
Your hands were a spark
Lighting up my broken days
In a world that felt so cold
You were fire in my bones
Yeah, we found love in the dark
And it turned my heart to gold
Bridge
Maybe we were both just lost
In the middle of the storm
Two lonely hearts in disguise
Learning how to feel alive
Now every fear is fading out
When you’re around
Final Chorus
We found love in the dark
When the night was all I knew
Every broken part
Found a home inside of you
Now the sky is wide and bright
And I’m not afraid to fly
Yeah, we found love in the dark
And it saved my life
Outro
So when the world feels too heavy to hold
Remember love can find you in the cold
We found love…
We found love in the dark
