Amaranth Moonlight

(album: All The Ways You Sing In The Dark - 2020)

It's feeling good to get out of town
This neon noise is wearing me out
A slender silhouette in the sky
Orange glow to every surprise

Tomorrow's gonna come
I've been half way dreaming it

I'm cutting off all my ties
Keep thinking how hard we tried
In the amaranth moonlight hour
I'll be dreaming of the way we were

This city keeps me down on my knees
I love the way that everything breathes
You think you get to safe higher ground
Suddenly we're both backing down

Tomorrow's gonna come
I've been halfway stealing it

I'm cutting off all my ties
Keep thinking how hard we tried
In the amaranth moonlight hour
I'll be dreaming of the way we were

I need an open heart
Wide open enough just to find ya
I need to light a fire
Right under my eyes just to guide ya
I need an open heart
Wide open enough just to bring me back

I'm cutting off all my ties
Keep thinking how hard we tried
In the amaranth moonlight hour
I'll be dreaming of the way we were
