Lyrics: Keane. Under the Iron Sea. Hamburg Song.

I don't wanna be adored
Don't wanna be first in line or make myself heard
I'd like to bring a little light
To shine a light on your life to make you feel loved

No, don't wanna be the only one you know
I wanna be the place you call home

I lay myself down, to make it so
But you don't want to know
I give much more
Than I'd ever ask for

Will you see me in the end or is it just a waste of time
Trying to be your friend?
Just shine, shine, shine, shine a little light
Shine a light on my life and warm me up again

Fool, I wonder if you know yourself at all
You know that it could be so simple

I lay myself down, to make it so
But you don't want to know
You take much more
Than I'd ever ask for

Say a word or two to brighten my day
Do you think that you could see your way?

To lay yourself down and make it so
But you don't want to know
You take much more
Than I'd ever ask for
