Civil Twilight

When the sun tickles the sea And the kids come out to play at Eventide Let your worries pass, grip the moment tight And how we felt so free It'll never last, so rule the night Pink and orange hues stream across the sky Though it dims, it never dies Bask in civil twilight Take a rest from what ails your mind Just a couple crazy teens With our petty hopes and dreams, just give it time No expression here but in the northern lights I can feel the breeze It likes to kiss, but never bite I'd like to save that honor for the end of the night Though it dims, it never dies Bask in civil twilight Take a rest from what ails your mind You've been waiting for this your whole life You've been waiting for this your whole life, yeah Take me back to a place I know Where I do not feel alone Take me back to a place I know 'Cause I can't make it in the cold Take me back to a place I know 'Cause without you I feel alone
