Afterglow lyrics

I need you here beside me

To chase the night away

I need your love to guide me

Safe through another day

I lie and watch the lights go down

Say goodnight to another town

And though it hurts to be alone

I have my thoughts of you to keep me warm

In the afterglow of your love

Dreamings all I'm guilty of

Everyday I'm playing tough

But read my mind

If you could see me now

Living my life in a limbo

If you could see me now

The me that only you would know

Still burning in the afterglow

When the beat of the drum has faded

The show comes to an end

The stage is cleared and loaded

And the highway calls again

I stand and watch the lights go down

In the afterglow of your love

Dreamings all I'm guilty of

Everyday I'm playing tough

But read my mind

If you could see me now

Just living my life in a limbo

If you could see me now

I'm still burning in the afterglow

Stay with me right to the end

Till I can hold you again

If you could see me now

Just living my life in a limbo

If you could see me now

I'm still burning in the afterglow

If you could see me now

I'm just living my life in a limbo

If you could see me now

I'm still burning, still burning, still burning

If you could see me now

Just living my life in a limbo

If you could see me now

I'm still burning in the afterglow
