I couldn’t close my eyes I was pacing all night, oh, no,I think I found the light at the end of the tunnel (and my doubts)I couldn’t find the truth I was going under

— "Cannonball"

Matthew Paetz is her proverbial light at the end of the tunnel!

Yeah there’s a million voices Screaming that this love's a dead-end roadBut the only voice that I hearIs telling me "go", telling me "go"

"Cannonball"

Yes, go! Run to him! Be with him, for your heart deserves to fly!

And I told you all my dreams and fearsAnd you looked at me and your eyes filled with tearsAnd you said those three words I'd been waiting forYou became a part of me, yeah

— "You're Mine"

ALL THE FEELINGS!!

Now I'm so happy you found a place for meBoy you wanted meSome security and two heartbeatsBoy you wanted meThen you told me so, wanted me to knowYou let the past go

"You're Mine"

Sing it, girl!

If I fell into you, would it be close enoughIf I finally let you in, would you show me what love isIf I had nothing to give

— "Empty Handed"

Yup, here come the tears. Not sad ones... These are ending scene of It's a Wonderful Life tears. You know, the kind that come around when unspeakably beautiful things occur. We're so happy for you, Lea!
