Afterglow (Hazel's Song)

(album: Dark Sun - 2022)

Twenty-one in the bleak of winter
You keep me warm when I'm freezing cold
My calloused heart didn't feel so bitter
I felt it change as I held you close

I'm on the road missing milestones
Counting the days 'til I'm coming home
No don't forget me when I'm gone
The single greatest thing I've done

A quiet song that I could sing to keep you calm
I'll never leave you when you're alone
So take me in the afterglow

You make me feel like my soul isn't crooked
Like I could fix everything gone wrong
Your destiny is to have all I couldn't
And you're the light that is breaking dawn

I'm on the road missing milestones
Counting the days 'til I'm coming home
No matter how far you may run
You're still the greatest thing I've done

A quiet song that I could sing to keep you calm
I'll never leave you when you're alone
I'll hold on forever

A quiet song that I could sing to keep you calm
I'll never leave you when you're alone
So take me in the afterglow

I'm on the road missing milestones
Counting the days 'til I'm coming home
You are the light that is breaking dawn
So don't forget me when I'm gone

A quiet song that I could sing to keep you calm
I'll never leave you when you're alone
So take me in the afterglow
