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