Amber leaning on the wall
Sun is sinking, slow and tall
Glass reflections turning gold
Day is softer than before
White tablecloth, folded light
Halfway into coming night
Piano tracing thinner lines
Between the hours and the wine
Not goodbye, not yet
Just a silhouette
Before the evening falls
Before the shadow calls
Hold the glow a little more
Right here on the marble floor
Slowly breathing
Before the evening
Skyline brushed in pale rose
City moving, gentle, close
Bassline deeper than at noon
Hinting at a darker tune
Brushes with a softer swing
Like a secret whispering
Every spark begins to fade
Into cooler shades
Stay between the light and dark
In this quiet spark
Before the evening falls
Before the neon calls
Let the golden linger on
Just before the day is gone
Softly leaning
Before the evening
When the first lights start to bloom
Color fills the room
We won’t rush the turning sky
Let it pass us by
Before the evening falls
Before the curtain calls
Keep the sunlight in your eyes
Just before it softly dies
Slowly breathing
Before the evening
