The Shining

Photo tells a story
Colors start to fade
Letters left unopened
Keep it to yourself
Lovers in the silence
Shadows on your bed
Stolen faint reminders
Drifting back again
See it in the dark a diamond vision
See it when you stare into the void
Hear it in the air, a thousand echoes
Corner of your eye, you think you notice
Trying to get a look, but you're too close
Want to slow it down, but it can't wait no, it can't wait no, it can't wait
Take me to the time
Late October skies
I feel the magic in the night
I let it light my way
Sentiments now long forgot
And little moments that you thought you lost
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Listen to your story
Know just what to say
Fashion all the words but
Nothing's on the page
So we love each other harder
Like a storm was at our door
Lingers in me always
Stubborn to the bone
See it in the dark a diamond vision
See it when you stare into the void
Hear it in the air, a thousand echoes
Corner of your eye, you think you notice
Trying to get a look, but you're too close
Want to slow it down, but it can't wait no, it can't wait no, it can't wait
Take me to the time
Late October skies
I feel the magic in the night
I let it light my way
Sentiments now long forgot
And little moments that you thought you lost
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Take me to the time
Late October skies
I feel the magic in the night
I let it light my way
I feel the magic in the night
I feel the magic in the night
Take me to the time
Late October skies
I feel the magic in the night
I let it light my way
Sentiments now long forgot
And little moments that you thought you lost
Take me to the time
Late October skies
I feel the magic in the night
I let it light my way
Sentiments now long forgot
And little moments that you thought you lost
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
Stay behind
