In The Gloaming

Footsteps on the floorboards

Echo too loud to be ignored

And the silence is your laughing

You have gone some place I do not know

And I see you there in the middle of the air

When come the dawning you’re fading I’m falling

You wake me but I’m dreaming

Fingers on the cold glass

Frosted over now that summer’s passed

Lengthened shadows in the gloaming

Oh your body chills me to the bone

In the quiet of the night

You’re suspended in the light

When come the dawning you’re fading I’m falling

You wake me but I’m dreaming

The cold it numbed your body

You keep diving deep

The Sun has set there’s no tomorrow

I won’t see you anymore

Winter snow left in shame

Waking on a sunny day

If I watch the stars I might see you climbing

And I see you there in the middle of the air

When come the dawning you’re fading I’m falling

You wake me but I’m dreaming
