The night is slow A gentle glow Hovers right above the porch Welcoming our footsteps As we stumble towards the door Your empty room A simple tune To put us all asleep so that We can wake with the sun And not feel so bad The summer days and August blaze We're trying hard to hold on tight To what's left of the freedom Brought with every night The winter sky is hanging high So far above the snow and ice We are safe, tucked away In the dim of candle light Seems like everyone's waiting For something better to start But we're fine being here, yeah We're happy right where we are If it was up to me I don't think I'd ever move on But it's out of our hands So let's try out best To hold on, to hold on Cause we're fine being here, yeah We're happy right where we are But it's out of our hands So let's try our best To hold on So when you leave just promise me That you will stay the way you are Bright and strong, moving fast Just like a falling star
