I can taste the midnight on your skin
We’re standing at the edge of giving in
Let the shadows fall across this hardwood floor
Every time you look at me I’m wanting more
The porch light flickers in the summer heat
You left your boots out on the empty street
I pull you close enough to feel your heartbeat race
Lost inside the quiet of this hiding place
The moonlight spills across the open room
Chasing out the last remaining gloom
I don’t want to let this fire fade away
Listen to the gentle words we say
This is bitter love and soft, soft tears
We’ve been dancing on the edge of all these years
With your hands on my collar and a whispered sigh
I’ll hold you till the stars fall from the sky
Soft, soft tears
Falling down, falling down while I pull you near
A glass of bourbon sitting on the side
There’s nowhere left for you and me to hide
I trace the lines along your shoulder blade
In this little sanctuary we have made
The moonlight spills across the open room
Chasing out the last remaining gloom
I don’t want to let this fire fade away
Listen to the gentle words we say
This is bitter love and soft, soft tears
We’ve been dancing on the edge of all these years
With your hands on my collar and a whispered sigh
I’ll hold you till the stars fall from the sky
Soft, soft tears
Falling down, falling down while I pull you near
I trace the shadows fading on the wall
I’m ready for the moment we just fall
You’re the only spark I ever need
A whispered lullaby from yours, Sayed
Burning through the memories we keep
Falling in this feeling way too deep
I want to memorize the way you look right now.
Let the rest of the world just fade into the dark.
This is bitter love and soft, soft tears
We’ve been dancing on the edge of all these years
With your hands on my collar and a whispered sigh
I’ll hold you till the stars fall from the sky
We’re standing at the edge of giving in
Let the shadows fall across this hardwood floor
Every time you look at me I’m wanting more
The porch light flickers in the summer heat
You left your boots out on the empty street
I pull you close enough to feel your heartbeat race
Lost inside the quiet of this hiding place

Chasing out the last remaining gloom
I don’t want to let this fire fade away
