The Afterglow by Goodbye Sky Harbour Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Seems just like yesterday
Life came along and got in the way
Showed me a good time
Forget all your deadbeat lies
I was ready when it was steady somehow
This is where our feeling are too heavy now
How could you let me fall?
Times were [?]
Well, I was trusting you
[Chorus]
I wish I had the guts to say
"You should've never pushed me away"
Call me a castaway, but you're an anchor with no ocean floor
Not knowing your way back to shore
I can't help you anymore
[Verse 2]
I keep telling myself I give up
When every time I do, I just cover up my mistakes
(Take my advice)
Carry on when all your trust is gone
And I've been waiting here for far too long
Feels like I'm always trapped in the same marathon
And I keep running out of breath
[Chorus]
I wish I had the guts to say
"You should've never pushed me away"
Call me a castaway, but you're an anchor with no ocean floor
Not knowing your way back to shore
I can't help you anymore
[Bridge]
If only you could know
Just how far this would go
I'd see you in the afterglow
(I'd see you in the afterglow)
If only you could know
Just how far this would go
I'd see you in the afterglow
[Chorus]
I wish I had the guts to say
(If only you could know just how far this would go)
"You should've never pushed me away"
(I'd see you in the afterglow)
(Call me a castaway, but you're an anchor)
(If only you could know just how far this would go)
Know just how far this would go
(I'd see you in the afterglow)
Not knowing your way back to shore
I can't help you anymore
I'd see you in the afterglow
Seems just like yesterday
Life came along and got in the way
Showed me a good time
Forget all your deadbeat lies
I was ready when it was steady somehow
This is where our feeling are too heavy now
How could you let me fall?
Times were [?]
Well, I was trusting you
[Chorus]
I wish I had the guts to say
"You should've never pushed me away"
Call me a castaway, but you're an anchor with no ocean floor
Not knowing your way back to shore
I can't help you anymore
[Verse 2]
I keep telling myself I give up
When every time I do, I just cover up my mistakes
(Take my advice)
Carry on when all your trust is gone
And I've been waiting here for far too long
Feels like I'm always trapped in the same marathon
And I keep running out of breath
[Chorus]
I wish I had the guts to say
"You should've never pushed me away"
Call me a castaway, but you're an anchor with no ocean floor
Not knowing your way back to shore
I can't help you anymore
[Bridge]
If only you could know
Just how far this would go
I'd see you in the afterglow
(I'd see you in the afterglow)
If only you could know
Just how far this would go
I'd see you in the afterglow
[Chorus]
I wish I had the guts to say
(If only you could know just how far this would go)
"You should've never pushed me away"
(I'd see you in the afterglow)
(Call me a castaway, but you're an anchor)
(If only you could know just how far this would go)
Know just how far this would go
(I'd see you in the afterglow)
Not knowing your way back to shore
I can't help you anymore
I'd see you in the afterglow
