Race You To The Light

Maybe we'll be together when the sun disappears
 In a house we've been building for a hundred million years
 And you can be my little sister
 You can be my mother, too
 Oh, I'll race you to the light
 I'll race you to the light
 I'll race you to the light
 I'll race you to the light
 Yeah, I'll meet you at the corner 'cause my folks are in a fight
 Yeah, I'll meet you at the corner and we'll tear across the hill
 Though I'm not feeling quite right but I wanna see you still
 Yeah, I always wanna see ya 'cause you look inside my pain
 And you cup it with your hands and you call it by its name
 Then you bury it between us in the dirt beneath our feet
 And we grow from it together like a weeping willow tree
 Maybe we'll watch together as the stars write our names
 From a raft we've been building out of hailstones and flames
 And I can be your little brother
 I can be your father too
 Whoa, I'll race you to the light
 I'll race you to the light
 I'll race you to the light
 I'll race you to the light
 Yeah, I'll meet you at the hideout where the sticks are lean and tall
 Where the light is growing darker, where we don't feel scared at all
 'Cause my arms are wrapped around you, with your face against my neck
 We know magic doesn't happen without patience and respect
 And the halls have all blown open and the truth is running free
 There ain't nothing in this world more alive than you and me
 There ain't nothing in this world more alive than you and me
 There ain't no one in this world more in love than you and me
 More in love than you and me
 More in love than you and me
