lyrics

So heres to goodbye Iʼll hold onto the words you spoke waiting for time to take me by the throat. Smoke rings around my teeth suffocates whats beneath bury the thought of me bury me when Iʼm free. Looking through pages of these lovesick renditions of the imperfect thoughts of hopeless poetry escaping me.

Watching the stars grow old and telling the stories untold if i asked you not to go would you stay with me. Whats one last dance between two ghosts entranced by the glow burning from each others eyes. Leave our regrets to die left in the ash we left behind leaving my heart deep within your chest leaving me empty yet again.

The girl who stole the night. Captivate my world with your eyes. Follow those old yellow lines. Back to my heart. Dying to be by your side. Just to have your hand in mine. Weʼre together one last time. To set the world on fire.

Creep up inside my ribs crawl between heart and lung sketching the songs unsung still taste you on my tongue. I will speak without you voice in me stars jam my arteries from the nights you spent with me. Theres a lonely flame between my fingers while pain begs me to throw it to the earth but then what have we learned?

The girl who stole the night. Captivate my world with your eyes. Follow those old yellow lines. Back to my heart. Dying to be by your side. Just to have your hand in mine. Weʼre together one last time. To set the world on fire.

Show me whats real. Teach me what to feel. So heres to goodbye.

Virtual Heaven
by Infinity Crush

Just found this by chance in the "if you like David Stone... section" - It's a beautifully warm record, clean and smooth, but without being polished to a shine. Perfect walking-in-Autumn record. David Stone
