Burnt Ember

Meet me where the asphalt turns to dust

Underneath the heavy weight of us

Say the words you only say at night

In the shadow of the dashboard light

We don't need a map to find the edge

Walking right along the quiet ledge

Take my hand and feel the engine hum

Waiting for the morning tide to come

And the world outside is getting cold

But we've got a fire we can hold

Pull me closer in the dark

Let the quiet leave a mark

We are burning in the slow lane

Loving you is like a sweet pain

Fading out the noise of yesterday

With you there is nothing left to say

Pull me closer in the dark

Let the quiet leave a mark

We are burning in the slow lane

Loving you is like a sweet pain

In the dark

(in the dark)
