Vanilla Twilight

Chords

Standard

C
The stars lean down to kiss you,
G
And I lie awake and miss you.
Am                      F
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere.
C
'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly,
G
But I'll miss your arms around me.
Am                         F
I'd send a postcard to you dear,
'Cause I wish you were here.

C
I'll watch the night turn light blue.
G
But it's not the same without you,
Am                              F
Because it takes two to whisper quietly,
C
The silence isn't so bad,
G
Till I look at my hands and feel sad,
Am
'Cause the spaces between my fingers
F
Are right where yours fit perfectly.

C
I'll find repose in new ways,
G
Though I haven't slept in two days,
Am                              F
'Cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone.
C
But drenched in Vanilla twilight,
G
I'll sit on the front porch all night,
Am                                   F
Waist deep in thought because when I think of you.
                C       G 
I don't feel so alone.
               Am     F
I don't feel so alone.
                C
I don't feel so alone.
G                Am                    F               C
As many times as I blink I'll think of you... tonight. 
G                 Am         F
I'll think of you tonight.

C
When violet eyes get brighter,
G
And heavy wings grow lighter,
Am                           F
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again.
C
And I'll forget the world that I knew,
G
But I swear I won't forget you,
Am                              F
Oh if my voice could reach back through the past,
                    Dm7
I'd whisper in your ear,
                                C
Oh darling I wish you were here.
