small correction: "Your dim light shines from so far away" is what Dave sings and what is written in the album's book.
You're right, Dan Murphy co-wrote this song but Dave sings it anyway and Dan does the backing vocals as usual.
I love the lyric "as I watched you walk away, I hoped a part of you would stay".
It's a game-with-words (one of many) where he changes the usual expression "a part of me hoped you'd stay". Great music too!
