08 - BEFORE THE DAWN (Live Session)

V5.5

(Verse 1) I watched the sunlight fade away, Through empty streets that knew your name. The echoes whisper where we lay, And I still burn inside the flame. You said that love would find its way, But time keeps stealing what remains. I reach for you in every dream, But the morning pulls you far from me. (Pre-Chorus) And every night I tell myself, That I’m stronger than the pain. But when I see your face in shadows, The tears come down like rain. (Chorus) Before the dawn can break my heart, Hold me close, don’t fall apart. Every promise fades in time, Still I wish that you were mine. Before the dawn, just let me stay, We’ll find forever in the grey. If love must die, then let it be, Right here — between you and me. (Instrumental) (Verse 2) I walk the edge of memory, Where yesterday still bleeds in me. Your voice still dances through the wind, It calls me back to where we’ve been. They say that nothing ever lasts, But I still feel your hand in mine. And if this road must fade to black, At least we walked it side by side. (Pre-Chorus) And when the silence cuts so deep, I pray your heart still beats for me. If love’s a storm, I’ll take the rain, Just to feel you once again. (Chorus) Before the dawn can break my heart, Hold me close, don’t fall apart. Every promise fades in time, Still I wish that you were mine. Before the dawn, just let me stay, We’ll find forever in the grey. If love must die, then let it be, Right here — between you and me. (Bridge) Now the thunder starts to call, The sky is breaking, I feel it all. Every scar, every sin, Leads me right back to where we begin. (Accelerated Chorus) Before the dawn can break my heart! Hold me close, don’t fall apart! If every dream must fade away, I’ll still remember yesterday! Before the dawn, just let me stay, We’ll find forever in the grey. And if the night won’t set me free, Then let the fire burn in me! (Guitar Solo) (Final Chorus) Before the dawn can break my heart, Hold me close, don’t fall apart. The storm is gone, the rain is through, But I’ll still wait right here for you. (Outro) Before the dawn… (instrumental outro longo)
