INDIGO NIGHT ─────── ✦ ─────── ⋆｡°✩ ───────── ✩°｡⋆ ˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ ⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚ ── ˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆ ☾ ⋆｡°✩ ───── ✩°｡⋆ ☽ I walked where the city ends, Where the streetlights lose their names, With a heart I couldn’t hear And a pocket full of rain. I thought I’d seen enough of life To know how every story goes, But the moon was hanging differently, And the midnight started to glow. Then the wind moved through the trees, Like it knew something about me, And for once I didn’t run, I just let the silence speak. Oh, indigo night, Wrap your blue around me, I’ve been sleeping with my eyes wide open Waiting for something to find me. Indigo night, Don’t let the morning come too soon, For the first time I can feel my heart Beating underneath the moon. There were voices on the hillside, Someone laughing in the dark, Bare feet dancing through the cold grass, Little fires, little sparks. And I wondered how they did it, How they made the whole world sing, How they carried all that tenderness Like it wasn’t a dangerous thing. Then a stranger took my hand, Didn’t ask me who I’d been, She just pulled me toward the music And said, “Come and breathe it in.” Oh, indigo night, Wrap your blue around me, I’ve been sleeping with my eyes wide open Waiting for something to find me. Indigo night, Don’t let the morning come too soon, For the first time I can feel my heart Beating underneath the moon. Maybe it was nothing, Maybe nothing had to change, Maybe I was always living Just too far away. Maybe it was the grass beneath me, Maybe someone’s gentle eyes, Maybe life had always whispered And tonight I heard it right. Oh, indigo night, I can finally see it— All the colors I was passing by, All the reasons to believe it. Indigo night, Even darkness has a bloom, And for the first time I don’t need the sun To know I’m coming through. Stay indigo, Stay a little while. I forgot the world Could make me smile. Stay indigo, Till the morning light— I came here half asleep, But I leave alive.
