[Verse]
Shadows dance on the cobblestone
Your hand in mine feels like home
We walk past where the wildflowers grow
Each step closer to the unknown
[Verse 2]
Lanterns flicker like fireflies
In your eyes I see secret skies
Whispered words just fade away
The night begins to fray
[Chorus]
Twilight whispers in the breeze
Holding tight but you're slipping free
With every step I feel the night
Taking you away from me
[Verse 3]
Stars are painted in the deep blue
Echoes of the things we knew
Your smile hides behind a veil
In silence
Our hearts set sail
[Verse 4]
Footsteps echo down empty streets
Time it moves
And then it cheats
Hold me close just one more time
Before you leave me behind
[Bridge]
Moonlight tries to hold the day
But the dawn will steal you away
One last glance
A final plea
Before you fade into the sea
