[Intro] [Verse 1] There was a road beyond the village, Where the wild grass met the stone. Two young boys chased the evening, Before the years would call them home. We carved our names into the old oak, Made promises beneath the sky. Said we'd always walk together, No matter where the seasons carried us by. [Pre-Chorus] But time has a way of turning pages, And roads don't always stay the same. [Chorus] Keep the last light on the hill, Where the old fields remember still. Through the storms and through the rain, Through the joy and through the pain. If I'm lost, I'll find my way, By the fire that refused to fade. And I'll hear your voice again... Where the last light shines. [Verse 2] I crossed the seas and distant cities, Chased a life I thought I'd find. But every street and every skyline, Left a piece of home behind. I still hear the songs we sang there, By the fire at the end of day. And the words you spoke so softly, Still guide me when I lose my way. [Pre-Chorus] Some people leave this world behind, But never truly leave our side. [Chorus] Keep the last light on the hill, Where the old fields remember still. Through the storms and through the rain, Through the joy and through the pain. If I'm lost, I'll find my way, By the fire that refused to fade. And I'll hear your voice again... Where the last light shines. [Bridge] Now the years have marked my hands, Like the stones along the shore. But every scar and every story, Brings me closer than before. For the ones who walked beside us, For the names we still hold dear, Love is the song that carries on, When the voices disappear. [Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] Keep the last light on the hill, I know you are waiting there still. Beyond the shadows, beyond the night, Beyond the edge of fading light. And when my final road is done, When my journey meets the sun, I'll find the ones I loved again... Where the last light shines. [Outro] Some lights are never meant to fade... They live in us.
