TOGETHER AT LAST

[Verse 1]
A thousand sunset nights,
Dark shadows on the ground,
Can't drown out the light
When you were around.
Your voice from back then
Still whispers in my ear,
Girl, you in my sweatshirt,
The thought brings a tear.

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And though we're far away,
In my heart, you are here.
I'm still praying for the day
That the sun will reappear.

[Hook (Chorus)]
Something in this night sky
Tells me the storm will pass.
Your almond eyes come home,
Sweet girl, together at last.
Oh, together at last,
Oh, together at last...

[Verse 2]
Every star in the sky,
A reminder of what’s gone,
But I still hold on tight,
Even when the nights are long.
Memories dance like fireflies,
Lighting up the dark,
In the silence, we collide,
Your laughter leaves a mark.

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And though time moves on,
In my dreams, you're still near.
Every heartbeat's a song,
With your name echoing clear.

[Hook (Chorus)]
Something in this night sky
Tells me the storm will pass.
Your almond eyes come home,
Sweet girl, together at last.
Oh, together at last,
Oh, together at last...

[Bridge]
So here’s to the nights we’ll write
With laughter in the breeze,
Underneath the stars so bright,
Our hearts will find their ease.
Chasing dreams until they’re real,
In the warmth of your embrace,
With every moment that I steal,
I can feel our perfect space.

[Hook (Chorus)]
Something in this night sky
Tells me the storm will pass.
Your almond eyes come home,
Sweet girl, together at last.
Oh, together at last,
Oh, together at last...

[Outro]
A thousand sunset nights,
Can't drown out the light
'Cause girl, you’re still in my heart,
In this love that's infinite and bright.

Thanks Jan.. my hope was to write something fairly simple, yet that would get to the emotions inside of many who have had such a sad experience. Love is so incredible that its loss is almost unfathomable.
