ChasingLight

Chasing Light - 麒麟光谱

Coffee's gone cold on the windowsill

Sunlight crawls across the wall

Pages turn I don't recall the words

Seconds pass unheard

I can feel it slip right through my hands

All the days I thought would never end

Oh time you move so slow then you're gone

Quiet as the breath before the dawn

We're just drifting through the fading hours

Chasing light between the towers

Oh time you don't wait for anyone

Soft as the rain when it's done

Empty glass on the kitchen shelf

Photographs of somewhere else

Laughs we had that echo in the hall

Fading one by one and all

I can feel it slip right through my hands

All the nights I thought would never end

Oh time you move so slow then you're gone

Quiet as the breath before the dawn

We're just drifting through the fading hours

Chasing light between the towers

Oh time you don't wait for anyone

Soft as the rain when it's done

We don't have to race the setting sun

Every moment's already won

In the quiet in between the lines

That's where we really find the time

Fading hours fading light

Hold me close through the night
