For all her life, she's been lookin' over the edge
After all this time, she ain't jumped off yet
When she thinks he can't take the pain anymore, seems the darkness won the fight
She looks up and he sees, a little bit of light
Sometimes light is in a stranger's passing smile
Or call from a friend that he hasn't heard from in a while
Little things to remind her that someone cares if she's even alive
He looks up and he sees, a little bit of light
When midnight brings sorrow and a half-empty glass
The sunlight on the full moon reminds her that the nighttime's gonna pass
When she thinks she can't take the pain anymore, seems the darkness won the fight
She looks up and he sees, a little bit of light
