[Verse 1]
And I feel
All the faint morning light
Filled with hope
Cause you're here in my life
And we've gone
From the edge of our souls
Made it back to a place we call home
You... See me through
I was alone in the dark and the fear was my truth

[Chorus]
Yeah all the things that you are
Beautifully broken
Alive in my heart
And know
That you are everything
Let your heart sing and tonight
We'll light up the stars
All that you are

[Verse 2]
I feel wrong
I'm so human and flawed
I'll break down even though I'm still strong
And time... will make fools of us all
Build us up and then laughs when we fall
You... pull me through
When I'm alone in the dark and the fear is my truth

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
You're the sound of redemption
The faith that I've lost the answers
I'm seeking no matter the cost
You opened the window now I can see
And you taught me forgiveness
By giving your love back to me

[Chorus] [2x]
Yeah all the things that you are
Beautifully broken
Alive in my heart
And know
That you are everything
Let your heart sing and tonight

Let your heart sing and tonight
We'll light up the stars
All that you are

[Outro]
Oh, I feel... all the faint morning light
Filled with hope cause you're here in my life

The Goo Goo Dolls are an American rock band formed in 1986 in Buffalo, NY, during one of Buffalo’s most prolific underground music phases. The band was formed by John Rzeznik (Also known as Johnny Rzeznik), lead singer and songwriter for the band, with bassist/vocalist Robby Takac, and drummer George Tutuska. Mike Malinin later replaced Tutuska as the band’s drummer.

The band has released twelve studio albums between 1986 and 2017, but they are best known for platinum-selling A Boy Named Goo (1995) and Dizzy Up the Girl (1998). These mid- to late 1990s albums contain the Goo Goo Dolls' biggest hits to date – Name and Iris most notably, but also Slide, Black Balloon, and Dizzy

These hits made the Goo Goo Dolls a household name for radio-friendly “prom night power balladry” (as one Rolling Stone review put it), but the band’s early output was often far rougher musically, melding the band’s edgier punk influences with an often soft sensibility in the mold of the band’s early heroes, The Replacements. One can hear these influences on many songs on A Boy Named Goo though these affinities would fade after Dizzy Up the Girl.
