Till the dawn chases night away

V6

[Verse 1] The wind is wild, the weather’s restless now, Yet I’m warmed again by just your breath, I vow. I spin within your arms, lost in the sway, Dancing till the dawn chases night away. [Pre-Chorus] On the table, my glass, half-empty still, Your warmth upon my arms, your bracelets’ chill. So many times I promised I’d let go, Swore I wouldn’t let this feeling grow. [Chorus] On the table, that glass I couldn’t finish, In my soul, the weight of words left unspoken, gripping. So many times I told myself to stop, Yet the forbidden taste is far too sweet to drop. [Bridge] Here in the parlor, dim and hushed, Beneath the organza’s soft fold, Soaked through with nights of waiting, touched By silence of the chance-met hold. Maybe it’d be simpler Just to lie down and sleep, But these feelings between us— They’re not lies we can keep. [Verse 2] If feelings could be drunk like wine, Someone might drain them to the end, But I’d never have the strength, I know, To erase you from every memory I hold. [Pre-Chorus] On the table, my glass, half-empty still, Your warmth upon my arms, your bracelets’ chill. So many times I promised I’d let go, Swore I wouldn’t let this feeling grow. [Chorus] On the table, that glass I couldn’t finish, In my soul, the weight of words left unspoken, gripping. So many times I told myself to stop, Yet the forbidden taste is far too sweet to drop. [Outro] I’ll keep this tender tune inside my mind, The fleeting touch of fabric left behind. Tell me, why did you call me to your side? Why did you pull me close, hold me so tight? [Outro-Chorus] On the table, my glass, half-empty still, On the table, that glass I couldn’t finish, Like a secret I keep holding, never ready to relinquish. Yet the forbidden taste is far too sweet to drop, We drown in silence, wait, and trace, The secrets of this stolen place. [End]
