Dawn’s glow peaks through the curtains a new day is itching to break But you’re just a lump beside me miles away from awake The world is still but my soul takes flight 'Cause I get to see your glow turn shadows into light Let the morning stretch its arms wide Let the stars fade from the skies I’ll hold back the day until you decide to set ablaze the sparkle in your eyes I want to leap, I want to fly to your arms, where the stars still lie I’ll be a silent witness to the quiet explosions only I see as sparkles take over your eyes But I move slow so you can stay drifting gently into the day Don’t want to burst the sleepy bubble you’ve created Keep a grip on the last ember of the nighttime Hold on to that world as it tries to slip away Don’t let the morning break us out of this spell I want to leap, I want to fly to your arms where the stars still lie An astronomer watching silent supernova In the depths of your eyes But I move slow so you can stay drifting gently into the day The sun paints the room in pale golden light Now I silently watch as the sparks in your eyes ignite Don’t want to pull you from your snug warm cocoon It’s just you and me and the world’s locked out of our room I want to leap, I want to fly to your arms, where the stars still lie I’ll be a silent witness to the quiet explosions only I see as sparkles take over your eyes But I move slow so you can stay drifting gently into the day
