Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Candles lit along the marble stair
I picked a gown the color of plums
An envelope arrived without a name
Gold wax and a ribbon tied in threes
Something hummed beneath the chandelier
The mirror bowed and let me through
One step and the hallway stretched to stars
My slippers never touched the ground
[Pre-Chorus] And I can hear them calling
Across the quiet air
Somewhere a table's waiting
And someone saved my chair
[Chorus] Come with me tonight
Where the lanterns float and the gardens glow
Come with me tonight
Every stranger here is a friend I know
We are two worlds dancing
Two worlds dancing
Under one enormous moon
[Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, oh-oh
Two worlds dancing
Oh-oh, oh-oh
One moon
[Verse 2] Pumpkins carved with careful patient hands
My neighbors laugh and pass the cider round
But past the gate a palace made of frost
Is playing songs my childhood never found
[Pre-Chorus] So I send a silver signal
Through the harvest haze
Meet me at the border
Between the nights and days
[Chorus] Come with me tonight
Where the lanterns float and the gardens glow
Come with me tonight
Every stranger here is a friend I know
We are two worlds dancing
Two worlds dancing
Under one enormous moon
[Bridge] Be kind, be kind, the invitation said
Be kind, be kind, and you will find the thread
A door for every heart that wants to roam
A light for every soul that's coming home
[Chorus] Come with me tonight
Where the lanterns float and the gardens glow
Come with me tonight
Every stranger here is a friend I know
We are two worlds dancing
Two worlds dancing
Under one enormous moon
[Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, oh-oh
Two worlds dancing
Oh-oh, oh-oh
One moon
[Outro] Sweet and softly now
Sweet and softly
Goodnight to both
Goodnight to both [End]
