Dance Until Dawn

[Verse] Moonlight on the gravel road Shadows take their stance Rustle of the willow leaves A wind-born midnight dance Banjos pluck a lonesome tune Hearts are bound to sway In a sepia-colored dream We'll dance our blues away [Verse 2] Stars are winking high above Like secrets they conceal Folk songs sung in dusty nights Our souls begin to heal Whispers in the cool night air Where stories intertwine In the fields of amber waves We'll dance through pain and time [Chorus] Dance until the dawn Where the morning light won't find With the earth beneath our feet And stars that bind the sky Songs outstretch to yesteryear Where memories do lie Dance until the dawn My love Where time and tears pass by [Verse 3] Hunters know the woodland paths Coyotes share their tune Scars of old and promises Under the harvest moon Voices lost in yesterday Never quite the same In this fleeting Fragile night Remember all our names [Chorus] Dance until the dawn Where the morning light won't find With the earth beneath our feet And stars that bind the sky Songs outstretch to yesteryear Where memories do lie Dance until the dawn My love Where time and tears pass by [Bridge] Windows whisper in the night Songs of loss and gain Barns hold stories carved in oak Kissed by sun and rain Fireflies like comet trails Shimmer through the pines In this everlasting waltz Hearts and hands entwined
