This light at the end of the day
When even the highways seem still
The map in my hands folded shut
There isn't one magical word
But a carnival of them instead
Like an old, silent cinema screen
And in this light you are framed classically
Just a painting that hangs in my head
That I know like the back of my hand
And with the sunset, the neon awakes
And the cold colors dance on your skin
And finally the modern makes sense to me
You're effortless, you know you are
And all I want to do
Is let you lead me off into the dusk
Our shadows kiss before we do
Right here in the dark
I revel in the calm before the storm
The garden is haunted by us
And every mistake that we've made
Is at peace 'cause it led us both here
A thought that just burns into me
Of you in the ink of the night
Is the breathtaking danger of you
You're effortless, you know you are
And all I want to do
Is let you lead me off into the dusk
Our shadows kiss before we do
Right here in the dark
I revel in the calm before the storm
This is life
This is all I want from life
It's the fervor and the tenderness combined
In the dark, in the ever-falling dark
We are anchorless adrift but barely notice
(You're effortless, you know you are)
(And all I want to do)
(Is let you lead me off into the dusk)
(Our shadows kiss before we do)
(Right here in the dark)
(I revel in the calm before the storm)
(You're effortless, you know you are)
(And all I want to do)
(Is let you lead me off into the dusk)
(Our shadows kiss before we do)
(Right here in the dark)
(I revel in the calm before the storm)
(You're effortless, you know you are)
(And all I want to do)
(Is let you lead me off into the dusk)
When even the highways seem still
The map in my hands folded shut
There isn't one magical word
But a carnival of them instead
Like an old, silent cinema screen
And in this light you are framed classically
Just a painting that hangs in my head
That I know like the back of my hand
And with the sunset, the neon awakes
And the cold colors dance on your skin
And finally the modern makes sense to me
You're effortless, you know you are
And all I want to do
Is let you lead me off into the dusk
Our shadows kiss before we do
Right here in the dark
I revel in the calm before the storm
The garden is haunted by us
And every mistake that we've made
Is at peace 'cause it led us both here
A thought that just burns into me
Of you in the ink of the night
Is the breathtaking danger of you
You're effortless, you know you are
And all I want to do
Is let you lead me off into the dusk
Our shadows kiss before we do
Right here in the dark
I revel in the calm before the storm
This is life
This is all I want from life
It's the fervor and the tenderness combined
In the dark, in the ever-falling dark
We are anchorless adrift but barely notice
(You're effortless, you know you are)
(And all I want to do)
(Is let you lead me off into the dusk)
(Our shadows kiss before we do)
(Right here in the dark)
(I revel in the calm before the storm)
(You're effortless, you know you are)
(And all I want to do)
(Is let you lead me off into the dusk)
(Our shadows kiss before we do)
(Right here in the dark)
(I revel in the calm before the storm)
(You're effortless, you know you are)
(And all I want to do)
(Is let you lead me off into the dusk)
