Closer - The Bigger Lights

Picture yourself painted in black starlite skies

Like a painted canvas stained to white

Will make believe we were better of this way

Shadows taking shape in scarlet light

Give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves

Get up, get in, and bring yourself to me

Breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats

Are all we need

Time stops breathing for a moment

If right here, right now, is all we’ve got

We’d better make it last

So take me and make me

A part of you apart from you tonight

Secrets on cell phones

And begged for in tongues

Behind our breath

Beneath our lungs

Closer to closure

Then we ever been

Before our bodies break and fall again

Give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves

Get up, get in, and bring yourself to me

Breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats

Are all we need

Time stops breathing for a moment

If right here, right now, is all we’ve got

We’d better make it last

So take me and make me

A part of you apart from you tonight

Tonight, I’ll pour myself around you

Come light, I’ll learn to live without you

In a flash, you’ll be gone like the moon at the dawn

Of a brand new day

And alone, alone, alone, I’ll carry on

Time stops breathing for a moment

If right here, right now, is all we’ve got

We’d better make it last

So take me and make me

A part of you apart from you tonight
