Story Behind The Song
Song of longing and waiting for love.
Has a double meaning in that it can feel almost religious or inspirational as well as the obvious romantic connotations.
Written around christmas and the inspiration came from a traditional kiss under the mistletoe for myself followed by a party.
At this I sat and listened as a friend opened up to someone and poured his heart out.
Made me think of the unlocking of love in all it's forms and the vulnerability in us all.

Lyrics
Come inside and hide within these four walls
Find sanctuary with all who lie inside
Leave behind the blind, cold, cold night
Step into my light
And It's no sin to come on in and be beside me
Find safety in the comfort of my arms
We'll find a way to turn this night to day
My light'll lead the way
So come on turn the key tonight
Everything's a gonna be all right
We'll find a way to make things ok
So come on turn the key tonight
I'm gonna make you shine so bright
Like the stars up above
So come inside,
come inside and share my love
So come on in little boy blue
Coz I'll take care of you
Leave your pride and insecurities outside
Look into my eyes and and let me be your guide
I'll share my light with you
Solo
Just Come inside its time to get to know me
Though its late I just need you by my side
So come on and turn the key
And share this night with me
My light'll set you free
