Back Like the Morning Light

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a road that splits in two When you're young and searching for the truth We were just kids chasing different skies Living separate lives, learning how to fly But some things time can't erase A love that holds its place [Chorus] You came back like the morning light When the world had left me in the night A broken soldier, fighting on his own You walked right in and brought me home With every gentle word and steady hand You helped me learn to stand [Verse 2] Twenty years between goodbye and hello Natalie, you reached out and let me know That I was not forgotten, not alone Your voice became my shelter, my cornerstone We kept it simple, just two friends Learning how to trust again [Chorus] You came back like the morning light When the world had left me in the night A broken soldier, fighting on his own You walked right in and brought me home With every gentle word and steady hand You helped me learn to stand [Bridge] I was tangled in the dark Fighting battles, falling apart You saw the man beneath the scars And loved me back to who we are [Verse 3] Now Natalie, you're walking by my side My partner in this beautiful, wild ride We're making up for all those stolen years Trading in the silence for the cheers You gave me back a life worth living for I don't fight alone anymore [Chorus] You came back like the morning light When the world had left me in the night A broken soldier, fighting on his own You walked right in and brought me home With every gentle word and steady hand Natalie, you helped me stand [Outro] Some angels find you right on time Thank God this angel's mine
