The Night Is So Pretty And Young
walking for a thousands days
knowing you would never go away
there’s snow inside my eyes
but it’s warm inside my heart
the night comes like an old friend
your beauty beating in my chest
you can use my last wish now
I feel your words are speaking true
now were meeting in this night
trading glances that became a story
holding breath like it could be the last
filling answers in a broken glass
sitting under these quiet stars
wishing we could rise above
looking down upon ourselves
looking back against the black
you could hold a thought so true
like a secret that you never thought through
waiting for the dawn this time
we can wait here you and I
now were meeting in this night
trading glances that became a story
holding breath like it could be the last
filling answers in a broken glass
