The Afterglow - Silverstein

I can see the sunset just inside of your bedroom

I know it’s too soon to let it go

Everything you said echoing in my head

Into the afterglow

Street lights swaying in the wind at night

The freeway’s feeling like paradise

No, time won’t change it

Can’t erase it

It’s a long drive home, we can pass the time

By counting all the stars and the satellites

No, time won’t change it

Can’t erase it

I wanted you to know

I can see the sunset just inside of your bedroom

I know it’s too soon to let it go

Everything you said echoing in my head

Into the afterglow

I remember that night like it was the first time

Two of us caught in the undertow

Everything you said echoing in my head

Back and forth into the afterglow

I took a beating last time we talked

Still adding up the costs of the cheap shots

No, time won’t change it

Can’t erase it

Now I’m carving our names in the table top

Heartbreak in a St. Louis parking lot

No, time won’t change it

Can’t erase it

I don’t want you back

It’s just that I wanted you to know

I can see the sunset just inside of your bedroom

I know it’s too soon to let it go

Everything you said echoing in my head

Into the afterglow

I remember that night like it was the first time

Two of us caught in the undertow

Everything you said echoing in my head

Back and forth into the afterglow

I don’t want you back

It’s just that I wanted you to know

You still run through my head

But I’m alright alone

(But I’m alright alone)

I can see the sunset just inside of your bedroom

I know it’s too soon to let it go

Everything you said echoing in my head

Into the afterglow

I remember that night like it was the first time

Two of us caught in the undertow

Everything you said echoing in my head

Back and forth into the afterglow

Into the afterglow

Into the afterglow
