I wake up in the morning, and there you are The greatest blessing, my brightest star Your brown eyes tired, your half-smile too I see the weight, but I still see you I just want to make you understand How happy I am just holding your hand And don't forget, never lose sight To your family's heart you are life You are strength, you are light The guiding flame that keeps us bright Don't push yourself, you've done enough Without you here, this home falls rough You are strength, you are light In the dark, your soul shines bright Lay it on me, I'll carry your cross You are strength, you are light You are my light If you could see what I can see The man you're destined, the man you will be Every dream is within your hands I'll cheer for you as you take a stand I found you broken, but watched you rise Now I'll be there as you reach the skies Wait and see your wings will fly I'll stand beside you, through every fight I never meant to cause you pain I'm not perfect, I make mistakes But my love is true, it will never fall Love corrects and guides through it all You are strength, you are light The guiding flame that keeps us bright Don't push yourself, you've done enough Without you here, this home falls rough You are strength, you are light In the dark, your soul shines bright Lay it on me, I'll carry your cross You are strength, you are light You are my light So forgive the wrongs I've done If you feel like stopping, don't you run If the crash should come, if the impact is near I'll be the airbag to shield you here You are strength (strength!), you are light (light!) The guiding flame that keeps us bright Don't push yourself (ah!), safe in love you are (ah!) In the darkest night, you're still my star You are strength, you are light Forever with you, I'll carry your cross Now you can rest Now you can breathe Look into my eyes You are safe with me
