Twilight

---

     	The visions dancing in my mind 
     	The early dawn, the shades of time 
     	Twilight crawling through my windowpane 
     	Am I awake or do I dream? 
     	The strangest pictures I have seen 
     	Night is day and twilight's gone away

     	With your head held high and your scarlet lies 
     	You came down to me from the open skies 
     	It's either real or it's a dream 
     	There's nothing that is in between...

     		CHORUS: 
     		Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile 
     		Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind 
     		Away from me.

     	Across the night I saw your face 
     	You disappeared without a trace 
     	You brought me here, but can you take me back? 
     	Inside the image of your light 
     	That now is day and once was night 
     	You lead me here and then you go away.

     		REPEAT CHORUS

     	(You brought me here, but can you take me back again?)

     	With your head held high and your scarlet lies 
     	You came down to me from the open skies

     		REPEAT CHORUS

     	Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile 
     	Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile 
     	Twilight, Twilight, Twilight, Twilight.
