lyrics

I've traveled down this path I’ve made my own
Her footsteps used to walk with me; they used to walk me home
Her memory is fading; I just relive the past
If all we have is tonight, why can’t this moment last?

Can we close the distance between our hearts alone?
Searching in the moonlight, a place to call our own
Look into the night, count the times we felt alive
Take my hand; we’ll make this right
We’ll navigate by stars tonight

Let’s travel back to where it all began
These memories play constantly but I don’t understand
Her memory is fading; I just relive the past
If all we have is tonight, why can’t this moment last?

Can we close the distance between our hearts alone?
Searching in the moonlight, a place to call our own
Look into the night, count the times we felt alive
Take my hand; we’ll make this right
We’ll navigate by stars tonight

These red bricks know our secrets (whoa-oh-oh)
Our histories and regrets (whoa-oh-oh-oh)
Has this been enough? Have I lived or turned to dust?
As I’m looking back she’ll be waiting in the past

Can we close the distance between our hearts alone?
Searching in the moonlight, a place to call our home
Look into the night, count the times we felt alive
Take my hand; we’ll make this right
We’ll navigate by stars tonight
