I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it any where
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you can not hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder, Louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think i might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbyes
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you can not hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder, Louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Slower, slower
We don't have time for that
All I want's to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads
Have heart, my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if its just for a few days
Making up for all this mess
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you can not hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
it was in the finale to one of the wb shows, can't remember which, maybe one tree hill... or everwood.... not sure.... good song though, wish i knew what it was about
I think its about going to war with Iraq...like a soldier leaving or something....not sure just a guess cuz he said he wote about the conflict in Iraq....
I LOVE THIS SONG SINCE THE FIRST MOMENT I LISTENED TO IT!! I THINK THE SAME AS BUTTERCUP89: IS ABOUT LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS. HIS VOICE IS SOOOO SWEET IN THIS SONG...

vocal I love this song too... I'm not sure what the artist wanted it be about, but I kinda derive my own meaning from it. To me, it's like saying, we could be togther but now... Ah, I dunno, maybe that's just me!

vocal I, first of all, must say that I am completely in love with this song. The lyrics are brilliantly simple, and the voice is melancholily sweet and pure. I do however have to disagree with all of you as to the meaning. I am no one to say for certain, but there is nothing that leads to believe that it has to do with somthing such as the war. The long distance relashionship theory though might have some validity. I, personally, think it is about a break up. "I'll sing it one last time for you, Then we really have to go"... "To think I might not see those eyes, It makes it so hard not to cry, And as we say our long goodbyes, I nearly do." If you read that, it becomes evident that he is saying goodbye, hence the sorrowfilled words he sings which are paralleled by his voice. Not simply breaking up, but he's saying "I'll be right beside you dear". It seems like something along the lines of "we're saying goodbye, but I will always love you and be there for you". Looking at it that way, re-read the lyrics, and tell me what ya think. Hope my point of view helps!

i think it is an amazin song but i really h8 it wen ppl always say oh it relates to the war and iraq bcos half the time it hasnt. lots of my family hav gone there to fite in this shitty war and i havent seen them in a long time and seriously you cant put words to it no song cud eva describe it! i think it is about a break up the lyrics used, i love ;
*Light up, Light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear*
it meant alot to me while going through a hard time its an amazin song with great meaning, but it could b to all sorts but i really dont think a war.
