Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bound to this lonely road
You gave me hope
Gave me hope
Woke my drifting soul
And led me home
Led me home
[Verse 2]
Won't you just stay here?
Chase away my fears
Solve my mysteries
[Verse 3]
Won't you just stay here?
Chase away my fears
Set my spirit free
[Verse 4]
Won't you lead the way
Through my darker days?
Keep them softly spoken
Keep them softly spoken
Show me the way
To a brighter place
Keep my eyes from closing
Keep my eyes from closing
[Verse 5]
Oh
Lifted away from my demons
Eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah
Oh
Lifted away from my secrets
Eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah
[Verse 6]
Oh, my heavy bones
They weigh me down
Weigh me down
I'm held by a single thread
When you are gone
When you're gone
[Verse 7]
Won't you just stay here?
Chase away my fears
Solve my mysteries
[Verse 8]
Won't you lead the way
Through my darker days?
Keep them softly spoken
Keep them softly spoken
Show me the way
To a brighter place
Keep my eyes from closing
Keep my eyes from closing
[Verse 9]
Oh
Lifted away from my demons
Eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah
Oh
Lifted away from my secrets
Eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah
[Verse 10]
And if you start to fade
I will keep you safe
Like you do
[Verse 11]
And if you feel afraid
I will keep your faith
Like you do, ooh
[Verse 12]
Won't you lead the way
Through my darker days?
Keep them softly spoken
Keep them softly spoken
Show me the way
To a brighter place
Keep my eyes from closing
Keep my eyes from closing
[Verse 13]
Oh
Lifted away from my demons
Eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah
Oh
Lifted away from my secrets
Eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah
[Verse 14]
Eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah, eh, yeah
