afterglow Lyrics

A story

Written in monochrome

You ripped it up

So we could write our own

And you colored in between the lines

With purple hues and violet skies

Breathing life into

The beautiful unknown

They say

It's scary growing old

But the sun, yeah the sun it sets in gold

I hold you close never letting you go

We're gonna dance into the afterglow

Ah, ah, oh yeah

We're gonna dance into the afterglow

I planted roots in your woods

and yours in mine, we did all we could

See the forest for the trees

How the hell could I do that when you burnt em down and left me

But those wood burnings were made out of love

Heart on fire, lost above

Empty skies, look on ahead, the future's bright

They say

It's scary growing old

But the sun, yeah the sun it sets in gold

I hold you close never letting you go

We're gonna dance into the afterglow

Light overshadows the pain

Coloring my empty veins

And you're never, and you're never

You're never ever letting me go

Cuz I know what you want

And it'll hit you when your further on

So I keep on dancing

hopelessly romancing

Love and let go

Yeah it may be scary growing old

But the sun, yeah the sun it sets in gold

I held you close now I'm letting you go

I'm gonna dance into the afterglow

Feels so good being on my own

Life is better in the afterglow

Dancing slow

Praying for the unknown
