Afterglow(reflections album

The party's a ghost, a memory now Just the gentle hum of the house, anyhow The fading buzz in a trembling hand Trying to piece together the plan The pale light is starting to break Through the blinds, for goodness sake And everything is soft at the edges Making hesitant, quiet pledges (Pre-Chorus) And the world is washed in watercolour A little blurrier, a little taller And the silence is a melody That you are learning now to sing with me (Chorus) And we're living in the afterglow A gentle, ever-changing show The echoes of a brighter noise Are now my most beloved poise You're the calm after the storm A brand new, beautiful norm (Verse 2) We're tracing patterns on the ceiling With a sense of delicate feeling The world outside can wait its turn There's a lesson left to learn In the quiet, in the slow In the way the moments grow (Pre-Chorus) And the world is washed in watercolour A little blurrier, a little taller And the silence is a melody That you are learning now to sing with me (Chorus) And we're living in the afterglow A gentle, ever-changing show The echoes of a brighter noise Are now my most beloved poise You're the calm after the storm A brand new, beautiful norm (Bridge) And if this is the comedown... Let's never reach the ground... Let's just stay here, spinning slowly... Unfound. (Final Chorus) And we're living in the afterglow A gentle, ever-changing show The echoes of a brighter noise Are now my most beloved poise You're the calm after the storm A brand new, beautiful norm (Outro) A beautiful norm... ...Afterglow... ...Just the gentle hum... ...Stay here.
