lyrics

Take me to your secret places
far away from familiar faces
show me all your saving graces
then cast these feelings back into the night

there's no after, no before
each time that we pass through this door
nothing matters anymore
each moment burns more fiercely than the last

things are never how they seem
walking through a waking dream
something new that's always been
will always be but can not be seen

silent words and hidden glances
the ancient steps to forbidden dances
waiting for the fleeting chances
to let the music carry us downstream

red wine and candlelight
and the blanket of the darkest night
catch that feeling because it might
just vanish when the morning comes around

Take me to your secret places
far away from familiar faces
show me all your saving graces
then cast these feelings back into the night
