Before the Birds

Before the birds Before the light まだ夜の中 Stay here tonight Blue is fading from the screen Quietest the room has been Half a glass beside my hand Nothing ended like I planned The city holds its final glow One last hour moving slow 朝になる少し前 この静けさを見てる No need to speak No need to move 夜がほどける In shades of blue Before the birds, before the light We’re still here inside the night Every shadow, every sound Softly laying itself down Before the birds, before the day もう少しここにいたい Nothing left we need to prove ただ静けさに溶けていく Curtains breathing by the window Cool air moving soft and slow Distant buildings losing shape Stars beginning now to fade I can hear the silence change Nothing ever stays the same 夜の終わりを急がずに そっと見送っている No need to hold No need to know 朝の気配が Begins to show Before the birds, before the light We’re still here inside the night Every shadow, every sound Softly laying itself down Before the birds, before the day この時間を手放して Nothing left we need to prove ただ静けさに溶けていく Maybe we were never waiting Maybe night was all we knew Maybe morning isn’t ending Just another shade of blue 目を閉じて 息をして The sky is getting lighter now And we can let it through Before the birds, before the light We’re still here inside the night Every shadow, every sound Turns to silver all around Before the birds, before the day 朝はもうすぐそこに Nothing left we need to prove この静けさを連れていく Before the birds Before the light 夜の向こうへ We fade into white
