Empire of Light by Tin Hat Trio Lyrics
Endless night
Wanting but to hold you
Not so far away
One more time
Sweeter than the first time
Sweeter endlessly
In my dreams
Quiet as a photograph
Next to you, smiling, waving
In my tears
Knowing you would cry for me
Wouldn't you miss me? I miss you
Same blue skies
That cheered me on a new day
They're not so far behind
Same tall tree
That shaded us a short time
Leaves me longing
In my eyes
Gentle as a falling star
Where you are, glowing brightly
In my dreams
Quiet as a photograph
Knowing you would cry for me
Now you're watching over me, endlessly
I'll be dreaming of you…
Wanting but to hold you
Not so far away
One more time
Sweeter than the first time
Sweeter endlessly
In my dreams
Quiet as a photograph
Next to you, smiling, waving
In my tears
Knowing you would cry for me
Wouldn't you miss me? I miss you
Same blue skies
That cheered me on a new day
They're not so far behind
Same tall tree
That shaded us a short time
Leaves me longing
In my eyes
Gentle as a falling star
Where you are, glowing brightly
In my dreams
Quiet as a photograph
Knowing you would cry for me
Now you're watching over me, endlessly
I'll be dreaming of you…
