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

[Chorus:]
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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]
