The  stars lean down  to kiss you,
And  I lie awake and  miss you,
Pour  me a heavy  dose of atmosphere.
Cause  I'll doze off safe  and soundly,
But  I'll miss your arms  around me
I'll  send a postcard  to you dear,
 Cause I wish you  were here.
 x2
I  watch the night  turn light blue,
But  it's not the same without  you,
Because  it takes two  to whisper quietly,
The  silence isn't  so bad,
Till  I look at my hands  and feel sad,
Cause  the spaces between  my fingers
Are  right where yours fit perfectly.
I'll  find repose  in new ways,
Though  I haven't slept  in two days,
Cause  cold nostalgia  chills me  to the bone.
But  drenched in Vanilla  twilight,
I'll  sit on the front  porch all night,
Waist  deep in thought  because when  I think of you.
I  don't feel so alone.
I  don't feel so alone.
I  don't feel so alone.
As  many times  as  I blink  I'll think  of you... tonight.
 x4
 I'll think of you tonight.
 *KEY CHANGE*
When  violet eyes  get brighter,
And  heavy wings  grow lighter,
I'll  taste the sky  and feel alive  again.
And  I'll forget the world  that I knew,
But  I swear I won't forget  you,
Oh  if my voice  could reach back  through the past,
I'd  whisper in your ear,
Oh  darling I wish you were here.
 x4 until end
