Soft Light

Flame flickers a soft light Born from the midnight Strokes slowly to her side Secrets sworn concealed tight See the strange fires Billow from her vacant eyes Strange fires Melting through my distant guise Strange fires Billow from her vacant eyes Strange fires Melting through my distant guise Flame flickers a soft light (from a love we cannot touch) Born from the midnight (how lovely it's to be) Strokes slowly to her side (from above we let you shine) Secrets sworn concealed tight (close your keeps until it comes) See the strange fires Billow from her vacant eyes Strange fires Melting through my distant guise Strange fires Billow from her vacant eyes Strange fires Melting through my distant guise

A thief in the night came Took everything you gave for her This song isn't low, lady It's remembering love made in the summer But I think of the things that it taught me I learned that there's beauty I can't keep Learned that there's demons in stories Letting her down, no, I won't be Whenever she's calling, she'll call me Angry and seething as the sea Songs in cathedrals in month three Promise you'll smile off a memory And I, I, I I couldn't stop smiling like the whole way home Yeah, it should feel like something you were missing To all my friends, you'll find your way Some summer night, I hope I see you again All my friends, I'd love to stay Some summer night, I hope I see you again Looking up lately The moon doesn't chase me no more Before it was childlike Lost in the soft light, and so on, so on And I, I, I I couldn't stop smiling like the whole way home And yeah, it should be when she read out all she'd written To all my friends, you'll find your way Some summer night, I hope I see you again All my friends, I'd love to stay Some summer night, I hope I see you again The smell of rain and streetlight thrown A love, a lantern in the snow When she feels it taking hold She finds it so hard letting go How can I tell her that we'll shine? She dreads the devil's yet to show So damn reluctant to expose it to me, so when So I think of the things that it taught me She starts to think evil has lost me I walked with the wolves and it haunts me She steps with intention to run free So stunner, don't ever move softly You've been on a journey they can't see When dancing in ballrooms, you will lead Promise you'll smile off a memory And I, I, I I couldn't stop smiling like the whole way home And yeah, it should feel like something you were missing To all my friends, you'll find your way Some summer night, I hope I see you again All my friends, I'd love to stay Some summer night, I hope I see you again The smell of rain and streetlight thrown A love, a lantern in the snow But when she feels it taking hold She finds it so hard letting go How can I tell her that we'll shine? She dreads the devil's yet to show What I told you when That I told you when
