Vanilla Twilight
The stars lean down to kiss youAnd I lie awake and miss youPour me a heavy dose of atmosphere
'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundlyBut I'll miss your arms around meI'd send a postcard to you, dear'Cause I wish you were here
I'll watch the night turn light blueBut it's not the same without youBecause it takes two to whisper quietly
The silence isn't so bad'Til I look at my hands and feel sad'Cause the spaces between my fingersAre right where yours fit perfectly
I'll find repose in new waysThough I haven't slept in two days'Cause cold nostalgiaChills me to the bone
But drenched in vanilla twilightI'll sit on the front porch all nightWaist-deep in thought becauseWhen I think of you I don't feel so alone
I don't feel so aloneI don't feel so alone
As many times as I blinkI'll think of you tonightI'll think of you tonight
When violet eyes get brighterAnd heavy wings grow lighterI'll taste the sky and feel alive again
And I'll forget the world that I knewBut I swear I won't forget youOh, if my voice could reachBack through the pastI'd whisper in your ear"Oh darling, I wish you were here"
