Twilight Lyrics

[Verse 1]

 I was stained, with a role, in a day not my own 

 But as you walked into my life you showed what needed to be shown 

 And I always knew, what was right I just didn't know that I might 

 Peel away and choose to see with such a different sight 

 

 [Chorus]

 And I will never see the sky the same way and 

 I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday and 

 I will never cease to fly if held down and 

 I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight 

 

 [Verse 2]

 Never cared never wanted 

 Never sought to see what flaunted 

 So on purpose so in my face Couldn't see beyond my own place 

 And it was so easy not to behold what I could hold 

 But you taught me I could change Whatever came within these shallow days 

 

 [Chorus]

 And I will never see the sky the same way and 

 I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday and 

 I will never cease to fly if held down and 

 I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen

 

 [Bridge]

 As the sun shines through it pushes away and pushes ahead 

 It fills the warmth of blue and leaves a chill instead and 

 I didn't know that I could be so blind to all that is so real 

 But as illusion dies I see there is so much to be revealed 

 

 [Chorus]

 And I will never see the sky the same way and 

 I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday and 

 I will never cease to fly if held down and 

 I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight 

 

 [Verse 3]

 I was stained, by a role, in a day not my own 

 But as you walked into my life you showed what needed to be shown 

 And I always knew, what was right

 I just didn't know that I might 

 Peel away and choose to see with such a different sight 

 

 [Chorus]

 And I will never see the sky the same way and 

 I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday and 

 I will never cease to fly if held down and 

 I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight...
