Before the Dawn

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh

Verse 1

Midnight hums a low refrain

Through the hollow of the hall

Your silhouette across the pane

A shadow I recall

I came to you with empty hands

You took me by the flame

We traded breath for burning plans

And neither one could name

Pre-Chorus

Hold me tighter than the wind

Hold me closer than the end

Chorus

Die with me in amber light

Die with me before the dawn

Two hearts that learned to fall at night

And fell before the song

Verse 2

Your fingers traced the shallow scar

Across my restless chest

I whispered truths that came too far

And let them know no rest

We built a world of second chances

Broke it brick by brick

We danced on all our old romances

Till the music turned too thick

Pre-Chorus

Hold me tighter than the wind

Hold me closer than the end

Chorus

Die with me in amber light

Die with me before the dawn

Two hearts that learned to fall at night

And fell before the song

Bridge

Let the timpani roll low

Let the cymbal fade to grey

In each other's arms we go

Where the mournful violin plays

Chorus

Die with me in amber light

Die with me before the dawn

Two hearts that learned to fall at night

And fell before the song

Outro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh

Mm
