Hunter Hayes Lyrics
"Flashlight"

I get lost sometimes,
​like everybody else.
​Lose track of my life lines,
​lose track of myself.
​And there's all kinds of reasons to be scared and run away.
​
​It's a good time for sad times,
​like Heaven couldn't be,
​farther from the places,
​but Heaven always finds me.
​So if nobody cares, tell how is it I keep getting saved this way.
​
​Like a sunrise from a lonely night,
​like a smile in a stranger's eyes.
​It's the moments that saved my life,
​nobody knows about.
​Like flashlights.
​
​Lord, there's just enough hope when it shines,
​to go one scared step at a time.
​When the world's too dark I find,
​Your flashlight, yeah.
​
​I'm glad nobody's counting,
​And Lord, I'm glad you don't keep score.
​My prayers are all the same,
​as the one's I've prayed before.
​Yeah, thank you, but forgive me,
my 'rough-around-the edges' part is yours.
​
​Oh, in the moments where you swear I'm just screaming at the sky,
​is the strangest conversation,
​or a friend just stopping by.
​Yeah, it's funny when I realize,
all the places that your miracles can hide.
​
​Yeah, yeah, yeah.
​
​Like a sunrise from a lonely night,
like a smile in a stranger's eyes.
It's the moments that saved my life,
nobody knows about.
Like flashlights.

There's just enough hope when it shines,
to go one scared step at a time.
When the world's too dark I find,
​your flashlight.
​
​Oh, oh, ohhhh. Who am I? yeah.
​
Dust and water, touched by the Divine
​Won't you tell me, who am I?
​You keep shining on me, shining on me, yeah.
​
​It's the moments that saved my life,
nobody knows about.
​They're like flashlights.
​There's just enough hope when it shines,
to go one scared step at a time.
When the world's too dark I find,
your flashlight.

It's the sunrise from a lonely night,
It's the smile in a stranger's eyes.
It's the moments that saved my life,
nobody knows about.
Like flashlights.

​There's just enough hope when it shines,
to go one scared step at a time.
When the world's too dark I find,
your flashlight, yeah.

​
​Won't you tell me who, won't you tell me who, tell me who am I?
​Now that you keep on shining, shining your flashlight.
