lyrics

The stores are all closed, let's just stay in tonight. Lock the doors, leave the world outside. We've got each other and that's all that we'll ever need. The night is an ocean, its colors so thin. The starlight like silver draped over our skin. So kiss me, my love... tomorrow's a lifetime away.

I held you in the dark of my room, and my mouth kept trying to tell you the truth. But the words that I spoke fell and scattered like leaves on the wind. My eyes closed, and in shapes like a dream you were gone, as if you'd never been. Hold me closer tonight, help me chase all these nightmares away…

The headlights of cars play a delicate dance across the blank walls and over this bed. But right now, my eyes exist only for you. In a whisper so close to a plea, I asked you, "please, never leave". "Please... stay with me..."

You're the light of the moon on a lonely and sleepless night. You're the glass in the mirror, revealing all I've tried to hide. You're the candle that turns all these shapes into shadows so tall. You're the ghost in the picture, the image I can never make out.
