The porch light's fading to a gentle glow
And I know exactly where I need to go
I don't even have to knock tonight
I found your secret in the silver light
The gravel whispers as I pull on through
Just counting down the seconds till I'm holding you
The shadows dancing on the painted door
This is the quiet I've been waiting for
A heavy breath upon the wooden frame
I feel the heat before you call my name
No need to linger in the evening chill
I reach beneath the welcome woven sill
'Cause you left the key under the mat for me
A silent promise that I'm meant to see
We've got the midnight and a burning spark
I'm turning locks and walking in the dark
Oh, walking in the dark
Straight into your arms
The engine settles in the quiet night
I see the window glowing warm and bright
A poured reserve is waiting by the bed
I trace the wild thoughts running through your head
A heavy breath upon the wooden frame
I feel the heat before you call my name
No need to linger in the evening chill
I reach beneath the welcome woven sill
'Cause you left the key under the mat for me
A silent promise that I'm meant to see
We've got the midnight and a burning spark
I'm turning locks and walking in the dark
Oh, walking in the dark
Straight into your arms
A little secret that we never share
A sudden magic floating in the air
You hear my footsteps coming down the hall
This is the moment that we risk it all
You know Sayed is gonna hold you close
A burning fire that nobody knows
I knew I'd find it exactly where you said
Now I'm exactly where I belong
'Cause you left the key under the mat for me
A silent promise that I'm meant to see
We've got the midnight and a burning spark
I'm turning locks and walking in the dark
And I know exactly where I need to go
I don't even have to knock tonight
I found your secret in the silver light
The gravel whispers as I pull on through
Just counting down the seconds till I'm holding you
The shadows dancing on the painted door
This is the quiet I've been waiting for
A heavy breath upon the wooden frame
I feel the heat before you call my name
No need to linger in the evening chill
I reach beneath the welcome woven sill
'Cause you left the key under the mat for me
A silent promise that I'm meant to see
We've got the midnight and a burning spark
I'm turning locks and walking in the dark
Oh, walking in the dark
Straight into your arms
The engine settles in the quiet night
I see the window glowing warm and bright
A poured reserve is waiting by the bed
I trace the wild thoughts running through your head
A heavy breath upon the wooden frame
I feel the heat before you call my name
No need to linger in the evening chill
I reach beneath the welcome woven sill
'Cause you left the key under the mat for me
A silent promise that I'm meant to see
