Afterglow

Vanessa Carlton

Just when the days start getting colder,
I walk the streets I never knew
There's some words I never told you,
The sound rings out like the truth

And if you could see what's come over me
Then you would know
Cause I'm walking free
The wind at my back
Bathed in afterglow

As I sit here in this dark room,
All I seem to feel is light
I see color,
I see the maroon in the blood of this life...
That's ours

And if you could see what's come over me
Then you would know
Cause I'm walking free
The wind at my back
Bathed in afterglow

Watch the sun it paints an orange sky
Lay me down and feel the days gone by

Just when the days start getting longer
I walk the streets I never knew...
The sun comes out for you

And if you could see what's come over me
Then you would know
Cause I'm walking free
The wind at my back
Bathed in afterglow
