Daughtry – Torches lyrics

[Verse 1]
All the hate and lies around us
Like an ember in the brush
And can you picture a world without it?
And turn it all to ash and dust

[Pre-Chorus]
We keep waiting on a day that never comes and never comes
Too late is not a thing and we just gotta be stronger
Oh, gotta be stronger

[Chorus]
Love is like a torch that's burning bright
Carry it on, carry it on and you'll see
Fire will shine a light on the darkest side
Carry it on, carry it on
Cause we can never right all the wrongs
So leave the past well enough alone
And say

[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 2]
Take a look at what we started
Oh, spreading kindness all around
Don't you know it's so contagious? Yeah
Take a hit and pass it down

[Pre-Chorus]
We keep waiting on a day that never comes and never comes
Too late is not a thing and we just gotta be strong

[Chorus]
Love is like a torch that's burning bright
Carry it on, carry it on and you'll see
Fire will shine a light on the darkest side
Carry it on, carry it on
Cause we can never right all the wrongs
So leave the past well enough alone
Just say

[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh) Just say
(Ooh, ooh) It's gonna be alright
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah
(Ooh, ooh) It's gonna be alright
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah

[Chorus]
Love is like a torch that's burning bright
Carry it on, carry it on and you'll see
Fire will shine a light on the darkest side
Carry it on, carry it on and say

[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh) It's gonna be alright
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah
(Ooh, ooh) It's gonna be alright
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah
(Ooh, ooh) I said it's gonna be alright
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah
(Ooh, ooh) It's gonna be alright
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah

[Outro]
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah
(Ooh, ooh) Yeah
(Ooh, ooh) Oh
