Robin Swann - illuminated Lyrics

Every time I get a text from you
My heart glows enough to light up a whole city
Hope that every time you think of me
You feel something though I know that isn't true

You gave me a melody
For the first time in centuries
Only to bring me down
Crashing to the ground
And a thwarted hope
Hurts more than any tragedy known
And the light you gave
Only illuminated all that I desired that fell away

So why'd you do all that a week ago
You kissed me slow then said I'm really falling for you
Are words like those so easy to revoke
You took it back so soon at least in not one day but two

You gave me a melody
For the first time in centuries
Only to bring me down
Crashing to the ground
And a thwarted hope
Hurts more than any tragedy known
And the light you gave
Only illuminated all that I desired that fell away

Was I too late
Would you have loved me if we met at a sooner date
Is it me or is it fate
Would we have tried in a different lifetime
One where we both were bright-eyed
Then would you take my hand
Or would you still leave me stranded
You made me believe for once
Maybe I should give love a chance
But now you taking back your words
And no song can bring to light how much that hurts

You gave me a melody
For the first time in centuries
Only to bring me down
Crashing to the ground
And a thwarted hope
Hurts more than any tragedy known

You gave me a melody
For the first time in centuries
Only to bring me down
Crashing to the ground
And a thwarted hope
Hurts more than any tragedy known
And the light you gave
Only illuminated all that I desired that fell away
