Baby I get dark
And then you make it light
When I break my heart
Then you make it right
Baby there's an art
To how you live your life
Baby I get dark
And then you make it light

See the tears
In your eyes
See they fall
Because of mine
Feel my fears
And yours align
Feel our fears
Fall behind

Baby I get dark
And then you make it light
When I break my heart
Then you make it right
Baby there's an art
To how you live your life
Baby I get dark
And then you make it light
I have learned
To try again
I have learned
From how you bend
How you face
All your dead ends
How you turn
And start again

Let me take your hand
Look you in the eye
So you understand
All the reasons why
I became a man
The day I saw you cry
I became a man
Standing by your side

So baby when you're dark
I will make it light
When you break your heart
I will make it right

Babe I learned that art
By watching you in life
Baby when you're dark
I will make it light
'Cause baby when I'm dark
You always make it light
