Twilight

[Verse 1]
Tell me something sweet that I'll remember
Look me in the eye when twilight comes
Hold me, we'll reminisce about September
Laughing as my light fades into December

[Verse 2]
We can pick a sign, a secret signal
Simple by design so we’ll both know
Maybe a shooting star off Jupiter
Or pennies in a wishing well, or a puppet in the rain

[Chorus]
I love you, not perfectly, not well
But I love you, I'm leaving soon so fare thee well
I love you, so let that be the story that you tell

[Verse 3]
Maybe now’s the time to ask forgiveness
I will beg for yours and I’ll leave you mine
Weaving a tapestry of things unspoken
We’ll lay it down at the feet of all the promises we’ve broken

[Verse 4]
Yeah, take from me my best, how I adore you
And leave behind the liar and the cheat
And promise that kindness is the legacy you'll
Carry, like a hand-me-down until we meet again

[Chorus]
I love you, not perfectly, not well
But I love you, I'm leaving soon so fare thee well
I love you, so let that be the story that you tell

[Bridge]
No one sees it coming
We run away, we hide away, we never say
But love keeps humming
Today, today, today

[Chorus]
I love you, not perfectly, not well
But I love you, I'm leaving soon so fare thee well
I love you, I love you, so let that be the story that you tell

[Outro]
Tell me something sweet that I'll remember
Look me in the eye when twilight comes
