Lyrics
The visions dancing in my mind
The early dawn, the shades of time
Twilight crawling through my windowpane
Am I awake or do I dream?
The strangest pictures I have seen
Night is day and twilight's gone away
With your head held high and your scarlet lies
You came down to me from the open skies
It's either real or it's a dream
There's nothing that is in between
Twilight, I only meant to stay a while
Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind
Away from me
Across the light, I saw your face
You disappeared without a trace
You brought me here, but can you take me back?
Inside the image of you light (What!)
That now is day and once was night (What!)
You leave me here, and then you go away
(It's either real or it's a dream)
(There's nothing that is in between)
Twilight, I only meant to stay a while
Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind
Away from me
(You brought me here, but can you take me back again?)
With your head held high and your scarlet lies
You came down to me from the open skies
It's either real or it's a dream
There's nothing that is in between
Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile
Twilight, I gave you time to steal my mind
Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile
Twilight, I only meant to stay awhile
Twilight, twilight, twilight, twilight...
