[Verse 1]
Hold up a light, steady and bright
Cut like a knife through the cold and dark
These eager flames can't be contained
Cities are claimed by the smallest spark

[Pre-Chorus]
It's raining and I know we're tired
But try to raise your lamps a little higher up

[Chorus]
Hold up a light
Hold up a light
Hold up a light till the morning comes
Hold up a light
Hold up a light
Hold up a light till the world is won

[Verse 2]
Soaking and scared, worse for the wear
But still we dare for the light of day
Darkness above but we're dreaming of the
New dawn when love burns this night away

[Pre-Chorus]
It's raining and I know we're tired
But try to raise your lamps a little higher up
[Chorus]
Hold up a light
Hold up a light
Hold up a light till the morning comes
Hold up a light
Hold up a light
Hold up a light till the world is won

[Bridge]
Hold up
Hold up
Hold up a light till the morning comes
Hold up
Hold up
Hold up a light till the world is won

[Verse 1]
Hold up a light, steady and bright
Cut like a knife through the cold and dark
These eager flames can't be contained
Cities are claimed by the smallest spark

[Pre-Chorus]
It's raining and I know we're tired
But try to raise your lamps a little higher
[Chorus]
Hold up a light
Hold up a light
Hold up a light till the morning comes
Hold up a light
Hold up a light
Hold up a light till the world is won
