Lyrics
Fading twilight paints the sky in blue Aching heart reaches out for you In the hush of night your shadow stays Love's gentle pull in endless ways I trace the lines where you once lay Longing burns like a distant flame Every breath a sigh Every dream your name Hold me close though miles, miles remain Love and longing, sweet refrain Oh, bend the sorrow, sway the pain Drift like smoke in summer rain Rain your eyes, your laugh, they call me near Tangled thoughts, crystal clear Pull me under, set me free Set me free In this groove of memoir it swings low Then rises high, chasing ghosts across the sky Darling, why, why do you hide? Come back, tide, turn the tide In the hush of night your shadow stays Love's gentle pull in endless ways I trace the lines where you once lay Longing burns like a distant flame Every breath a sigh Every dream your name Hold me close though miles remain Love and longing, sweet refrain Love and longing Sweet refrain Enjoy for yours In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain In joy and pain
