lyrics

Turn off the city lights. They're bound to ruin another good midnight.
So I can clear my head and frame this state of mind
and make this the last time that we avoid the sunshine.

This is how I want you,
forever preserved in the light as only time can tell.
I know you want me too,
but just in the dark of tonight this only time.

The morning light bends, breaks, and creates a spectrum.
The indigo hues ignite the room as you sleep in.
An elbow in my side wakes me from a dream of you leaving.

This is how I want you,
forever preserved in the light as only time can tell.
I know you want me too,
but just in the dark of tonight this only time.

Our shadows dance in glow of the early day
As time loses value and spends in the interplay.
The sun reflects our skin and saves every move we make.

This is how I want you,
forever preserved in the light as only time can tell.
I know you want me too,
but just in the dark of tonight this only time.
