Story Behind The Song
"A Light is my attempt at a love song. Everyone likes those, right? I haven't really written many. I tried to keep this one simple. This song gives me a deep sense of peace when I play it live. Especially during the instrumental bridge. The whole thing feels like one big exhale of relief to me."
Song Description
Jon Kohen sought to explore the concept of a true, vulnerable love that causes the outside world to trickle away. What he discovered is an utterly calm, yet freeing, moment in time that exists for eternity. Even if such love eventually fades away, 'A Light' remains, and one will never be alone.

Lyrics
It's all over now. Nobody left to bother. You have them fooled. Now run to save face.
Haunting my dreams. I think it is a good thing. Just hit the light on your way out.
Pictures of you, Pictures of both me and you. No matter what is next, I'm not alone.
