After Dark ft. Jonathan Emile & SoulChef Lyrics

On nights like these

I write my dreams

Reach across seas

When I should be sleep

Half-dead in the daytime

Feel no peace

Life's on a hyphen

In-between

Sip caffeine

Sink deep into memory

These old songs

Are connected to everything

Dust on stacks of wax

We call classics

Buildings we used to lean on

That have crashed since

And I don't want to stay stuck in the past

But without then

Now's just hard to grasp

Foundation

Without them

I just can't

Keep building

Or breathing

I need my fam

But we scattered like satellites

Around the map

So home is a journey now

Wherever I'm at

Missing someone

Reunited with another

And if I did stay

I can't help but wonder

Wherever I go

Wherever I'm roaming

Wherever we are

Time will be showing

Just as soon as when we get gone

That's when we see that we was home

Home

And now home's long gone away

As time passes

I sit with me

Skyping with closies

While sipping tea

In a crowded cafe

Reading your face

Smiles and silences

Can't be replaced

Subtleties in voice

I could almost taste

It's like touching home

But with no embrace

And I'm thankful

Even for knowing you at all

And that we both take time to call

I'm not alone

As long as I know

Your out there too

I'd rather spend my days

Taking long walks with you

But I can't

So focused

On what I got to do

Cross continents

It's hard

To just come through

I'm not trying to diss here

But I miss you

And I feel more alive

When I'm with you

If you

Think of me

Reach out and touch

My heart knows no distance

I love you so much

Wherever I go

Wherever I'm roaming

Wherever we are

Time will be showing

Just as soon as when we get gone

That's when we see that we was home

Home

And now home's long gone away
