SITTING HERE AT DUSK

 

ADDING UP THE DAY 

 

DID I GAIN SOME GROUND

 

OR SEE SOME SLIP AWAY

 

DID I SHINE ENOUGH

 

BEFORE I FADED

 

 DID I PLAN MY NEXT STEPS

 

WITH CARE AND PRECISION 

 

GIVE ME A STARRY SKY

 

TO GET MY SOUL RIGHT

 

TELL MY HEAD TO

 

HOLD MY HEART

 

THIS IS JUST THE START 

A NEW BEGGINNING 

 

TACKED ONTO AN END

 

EVERYTHING THAT'S BROKE

 

WILL MEND 

 

 

SINKING INTO MY CHAIR

 

I CLOSE MY EYES

 

LET THE NIGHT

 

WASH OVER ME

 

MOONLIGHT FALLING ON MY DREAMS

 

STARLIGHT BRINGING THEM TO LIFE

 

HEAVEN SENT THAT I RECEIVE 

 

JUST A HINT OF IT

 

THE SCENT ON A SUMMER BREEZE

 

A CALL TO ARMS FOR ME

 

JUST BEFORE THE DAWN

 

INSIDE THE QUIET

 

BLACK COME BLUE

 

WAITING FOR THE SUN

 

SO MUCH TO DO

 

REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU THINK

 

IT NEVER WAITS FOR YOU

 

SHIFTS LIKE THE SANDS OF TIME

 

IN THE WIND

 

 

IT MOVES AWAY

 

YOU HAVE TO RUN

 

TO SEE IT FLOW

 

CATCH IT UP AND THEN

 

YOU'LL KNOW

 

WHERE TO MAKE A STAND

 

LET THE NIGHT WASH OVER ME

 

MOONLIGHT FALLING

 

ON MY DREAMS

 

STARLIGHT BRINGING THEM TO LIFE 

HEAVEN SENT THAT I RECEIVE
