Lamplight (Dargan)

Midnight, picking daisies in the moonlight
Skipping rocks behind your shadow
Letting go a bit too soon
The lamplight is not enough to trust my eyesight
If I wake to feel you breathing
Like a lazy afternoon

Was that your car that passed me by?
Or is it just the dust that makes me cry?

Crack the doors, trip down the hall
You’re only slipping until you fall
Dim the lights and wait for your call
You’re only slipping until you fall

Halftime, would you tug upon my lifeline
If you see me starting under
And I forget to hold my breath
Red wine pushes me towards the frontline
With your sights still trained upon me
And my fear that’s worse than death

Was that your town that passed me by?
It’s just the dust that makes me cry

Crack the doors…


Now the lamplight glows softly in the damp night
Like the one who waits to meet me
And sing my favorite tune
Midnight, pushing daisies in the moonlight
Planting rocks to mark the shadows
We’re approaching all too soon

Is that your time that’s passed me by?
It’s just the dust that makes me cry

Crack the doors…
