lyrics

Silent night across the west
Every soul a silhouette
Even all the pain is beautiful
I’d marry you a hundred times
Underneath the moon tonight
I never want to dream again at all

And you dance in your long, long gown
And there’s nothing left that we can do now
I just want to sing to you while the world is burning down

If I could pray for anything
You’d never feel alone again
Even if I’m somewhere far beyond
And every wind would be a kiss
To somehow bring you back to this
A place where you could feel like you belong

And you dance in your long, long gown
And there’s nothing left that we can do now
I just want to sing to you while the world is burning down

And if we never make it out
And we’re gone before our kids are born
Just know that I could see them in your eyes
The white horizon lightning up
Just being here is good enough
I could find you in a million lives

And you dance in your long, long gown
And there’s nothing left that we can do now
I just want to sing to you while the world is burning down
