[Verse 1]
See them come together
Oh they would not be apart
For every other day's another
And that's the only way to start
[Pre-Chorus]
Can live as one as lovers
Live as two as enemies
So many never know the difference
Come step in the dark with me
[Chorus]
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how loving can be
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how it can be
[Verse 2]
A vicious craving in my bones
A needing burning in my mind
Kept me one step away from something I could not find
Until I looked inside my aching heart and saw a hive of honey bees
Making honey from my darkness, gold from my disease
[Pre-Chorus]
So now I see
Can know the world as a lover
Can know the world as an enemy
Oh so many never know the difference
Come step in the dark with me
[Chorus]
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how loving can be
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how it can be
Calling out, yeah
Calling out, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how loving can be
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how it can be
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how loving can be
With the pale light in your hands
Before I understand how it can be
