Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

There once was a season of infinite light when the distance from heaven was not far behind

I was close to You

I was close to You

 

So carry me back to that moment in time

When the colors and fragments were beautifully bright

How I long for You

How I long for You

 

Out here in the dark

Underneath a canopy of stars

Constellations falling from Your heart

Tell me that I'm not alone, cause honestly I'm so alone, So promise me I'm not alone

 

How many miles does my soul have to drive

Before Love can collide with the mess in my life

That's not hard for you

That's not hard for you

 

Cause You see through spectrums of color and light

But I'm losing my way and I'm losing my mind

I can't see the truth

Help me see the truth

 

Out here in the dark

Underneath a canopy of stars

Constellations falling from Your heart

Tell me that I'm not alone, cause honestly I'm so alone, So promise me I'm not alone

 

When I felt the light of the moon on my face

The Memory of sun that'd been shining for days

You've already been in this desolate place

You've already been here and You've made a way

Pinpricks of glory strung out across the sky

Memories of darkness undone by the light

Reminding me you are right here by my side

You're here by my side

You're here by my side

 

Out here in the dark

Underneath a canopy of stars

Constellations falling from Your heart

Tell me that I'm not alone, I know that I'm never alone, Cause You find me and bring me back home

And I'm never alone

Out here in the dark
