Colbie Caillat – When The Darkness Comes lyrics

Colbie Caillat – When The Darkness Comes lyrics

Underneath the echoes
Buried in the shadows
There you were.
Drawn into your mystery
I was just beginning
To see your ghost,
But you must know

I'll be here waiting
Hoping
Praying
That this light will guide you home.
When you're feeling lost
I'll leave my love
Hidden in the sun,
For when the darkness comes.

Now the door is open,
The world I knew is broken.
With no return.
Now my heart is not scared,
Just knowing that you're out there.
Watching me.
So believe

I'll be here waiting
Hoping
Praying
That this light will guide you home.
When you're feeling lost
I'll leave my love
Hidden in the sun,
For when the darkness comes.
For when the darkness comes.

Be here waiting
Hoping
Praying that, this light will guide you home
When you're feeling lost I'll my love
Hidden in the sun, for when the darkness comes
Hidden in the sun, for when the darkness comes

I think this song inspires others to keep trying to keep hoping even if darkness comes it will pass. It always does eventually. To know that the sun will rise it, it will light up the sky. That you can go home even if you don't always choose the same path you always have that you can always take a different path home if you need to or want to in life. That there is a light no matter how small a flame & as long as there is even the smallest flame can burn the brightest light even in the darkest of rooms. This song truly is beautiful every word of it is simply beautiful & so lovely.

I love this song. It is powerful and it shows that whatever happens that they will find their way back to each other and they are willing to wait lifetimes for their love. Even though they yes, have a forbidden love, they would sacrifice everything for one night/day. Even if they are doomed, then together, they will find away to be with each other. Another thing for me is that this song says that there is hope for them yet and they will find their happy ending, however long it takes. They are dark when they are alone and yet together there is a pure and honest love. There is no limit to their unconditional love for each other. Without the other, they are soulless, nothing means anything to them. But when they are united they are magical. They have no doubt in their hearts that they are supposed to be together forever. It says that their hearts aren't scared even though they may be miles and miles from each other and yet they strive just from knowing that the other loves them and them being loved is enough, just having your soul emotionally connected to the another is mesmerising. I would love to have a love that has no bounds and a love that makes me feel safe and warm at night. Just knowing they are there for you.

This song to me is about a forbidden love. They know they can't be together. They have seen the true hearts of each other and now they're worlds have changed. They can't go back to the way life was before. They still love each other but it just can't be. They both would rather die on than not be together for they're one another's happiness. The light is they're love for each other and the darkness is depression. They will always be in love and they will wait forever to be together.

Be here waiting hoping and praying.......going through perhaps a physical or mental illness and the beloved knows that the they will be there for the other. Seeing there "ghost" could show how the illness perhaps cancer has broken someone down, and its a devastating experience to watch the beloved in pain. Strength comes in hope that when the one who is ill is in darkness, the Light of God or the Creator, Redeemer, will always break through in the sky. And if death is imminent that the Sun will take you home to another life beyond this earthly being......hidden in the sun.
