Towers

(album: The Masquerade - 2010)

She don't remember what it felt like
light and low, it was our night.
The blood rushing through this town
and I still hear the sound.

That rushing bird singing all night
of carousels in the moonlight.
She said nothing can stop us now
and everything can be found.

I'm trying to reignite her with the thought of yesterday.
And I'm trying to remind her before the memories fade.

'Cause I found you and you found me
running from everything.
Passion in the afterglow
lights the fire we used to know.

And I found me and you found you
doing what we had to do.
Building castles in the sky,
climbing towers much too high,
but when it all falls down
it's only me and only you.

She don't remember what it looked like
and how the city threw us all night.
Up so high with no way down.
We were kings in this town.

Now I'm trying to reignite her with the thought of yesterday.
And I'm trying to remind her before the memories fade.

'Cause I found you and you found me
running from everything.
Passion in the afterglow:
Where's the fire we used to know?

And I found me and you found you
doing what we had to do.
Building castles in the sky,
climbing towers much too high,
but when it all falls down
it's only me and only you.

It's only you.
It's only you.
It's only you.

I remember the words stick in my brain,
all these sentences with no refrain.
We dream up the future with so much to gain,
so much pleasure, and so much pain.

All the distance and time can cut you apart,
like a shattered sword through an open heart.
I wish I could take you right back to the start.
I never let go.
I never let go.
I never let go!

'Cause I found you and you found me
running from everything.
Passion in the afterglow:
Where's the fire we used to know?

And I found me and you found you
doing what we had to do.
Building castles in the sky,
climbing towers much too high.

And I found love and you found God.
We wound up here against the odds.
Passion in the afterglow:
Where's the fire we used to know?

And it all falls down.
It all falls down.
And it all falls down.
It's only me and only you.
