Said The Whale’s “The Light Is You”

I am thoroughly impressed by each new song that I hear off of Said The Whale’s latest full-length album, Howe Sounds/Taking Abalonia. This one is no exception.

When it’s so dark I can’t see the light
Well, I close my eyes and I think of you

Teddy bear, honeybee, don’t forget that
You love me more than the stars over your head
Just as your love shines like the moon
Full and bright and blinding through into my heart, into my head

When it’s so dark I can’t see the light
Well, I close my eyes and I think of you
My lil’ love, my only girl, I wouldn’t leave you for all the world
I’d just sit and wait for your moon to rise

When it’s so dark I can’t see the light
Well, I close my eyes and I think of you
When it’s so dark I can’t see the light, well, I think of you
But it’s so dark, I can see the light shining through you
