Still as the Night

Verse 1

Curtains drawn tight against the dawn

Breath fogs the glass with secrets lost

Streetlights flicker in patterns withdrawn

We measure love by what it costs

Pre-Chorus

Counting the lines on your face

Silent words begin to trace

Waiting for something to break

Still we hesitate

Chorus

Hold on to the silence

Can you feel it in the waiting hours

I could be your shelter

While the rain falls down, the night devours

Post-Chorus

Still as the night, still as the night

Verse 2

Traces of laughter remain in our room

Shadows stretch longer as dawn is delayed

Promises written on glass start to fade

There's no escaping the lives we have made

Pre-Chorus

Another answer slips away

Caught in the static light

Still searching for the missing time

Between the pain and right

Chorus

Hold on to the silence

Can you feel it in the waiting hours

I could be your shelter

While the rain falls down, the night devours

Post-Chorus

Still as the night, still as the night

Post-Chorus

Still as the night, still as the night
