The porch light is fading, the night is deep,
I’ve got promises that I want to keep.
A silver moon resting across your face,
I’m pulling you into a quiet embrace.
I parked the truck by the gravel road,
Taking my time with a heavy load.
A couple of glasses are catching the glow,
Pouring a feeling we already know.
The air is heavy, the fire is slow,
There’s a burning feeling I can’t let go.
You’re stepping in closer, turning around,
And suddenly I cannot hear a sound.
This is the long goodbye we never mean,
Lost in a memory, caught in between.
I’m pulling you closer, nowhere to be,
Just the quiet of midnight, you and me.
Oh, the long goodbye, making it last,
Taking it slow, forgetting the past.
Your head on my shoulder, your breath on my skin,
This is the moment where we begin.
The old wooden floorboards creaking below,
I’m holding you tight and I’m letting you know.
The air is heavy, the fire is slow,
There’s a burning feeling I can’t let go.
You’re looking at me with that dangerous smile,
Saying you want me to stay for a while.
This is the long goodbye we never mean,
Lost in a memory, caught in between.
I’m pulling you closer, nowhere to be,
Just the quiet of midnight, you and me.
Oh, the long goodbye, making it last,
Taking it slow, forgetting the past.
The shadows are dancing across the room,
Swept away in a sweet perfume.
Time is fading, the world is gone,
We are waiting to see the dawn.
Every look is a hunger I want to feed,
Just a quiet confession from Sayed.
Let the morning wait outside the door.
Right now, there's only us.
