A Slit of Light

[Soft Felt Piano Intro] The curtain is drawn but not quite closed on one side Letting a thin streak slip down to the tiled floor [Verse 1] This room has been dark since yesterday When the news outside stayed so gloomy But that streak of light fell through the gap Reminding me somewhere the day still lives [Pre-Chorus] I pull the curtain edge gently to the side Letting the ray grow just a little longer [Chorus] a slit of light is enough To make me trust the night will pass A slit of light is enough Proves the dark still holds a way out [Verse 2] I sit up and turn my face to the streak Feeling the warmth brush soft upon my skin The small gap holds a whole sky inside Enough to melt away a little sorrow [Chorus] a slit of light is enough To make me trust the night will pass A slit of light is enough Proves the dark still holds a way out [Bridge] Don't scorn hope for being too tiny Like this narrow slit of light, still precious Whoever is stuck between dark walls [Chorus] a slit of light is enough To make me trust the night will pass A slit of light is enough Proves the dark still holds a way out [Outro] The slit of light stays right there I place my faith in the thin beam [Fade Out] [End]
