Darkness Falls

Headlights carve out the path ahead Watch for the curve, the road twists and turns We're almost there Find a perfect clearing where we can finally clear the air Shapes in shadows scatter as we pass Radio's on, we're singing along, it's not our favorite song But we both know the words and that's enough Smoke hangs heavy like a question in the air You've got things to tell me, there are things I want to hear Let's unpack, we'll take it slow The night is long and deep Lay our cards out on the table Some secrets just won't keep Tell each other tales as tall as trees The firefly glow, warm, gold and mellow I'm listening Comets criss-cross constellations While we replay old conversations Treading carefully across uneven ground, just lean on me Radio's on, the volume's low, still not our favorite song Pretend we know the words and sing along Make up the bed, it's time to put uncertainty to sleep Cocoon me up in your arms tonight
