Into The Dawn

Into The Dawn

She dances like a shadow, that weaves across a wall

Sliding into corners, gliding over floors

The candles hold her eyes in the flicker of their flame

She makes you want to touch her, as she whirls

Round, round, round

In spinning copper waves that burn into your brain

Take her hand, reach her heart

Lead her through the darkness

As the night dissolves into the dawn

Into the dawn

Into the dawn

She haunts you with her vision, and tempts you with her charms

You want to spend your life, dying in her arms

The candles hold her eyes in the flicker of their flame

She makes you want to reach, reach inside

Down, down, down

To where we learn to cry, and our fears have no names

Take what’s there, Tear it out

Lay it all before her

As the night dissolves into the dawn

Into the dawn

Into the dawn
