City lights flicker like whispers in the breeze We’re perched up high above the endless seas Your warmth against mine it feels so right Two hearts collide beneath the velvet night But when the sun rises it all fades away This love we hold can't greet the day We’ll leave this rooftop leave this dream Back to lives that tear at the seam You talk of stars as if they’re within reach Your voice like waves crashing on the beach I trace your smile with trembling hands In this fleeting moment I understand But when the sun rises it all fades away This love we hold can't greet the day We’ll leave this rooftop leave this dream Back to lives that tear at the seam We’ll remember the city glowing below The whispered secrets the things we won’t show When we’re apart and the nights feel cold This memory’s warmth is ours to hold But when the sun rises it all fades away This love we hold can't greet the day We’ll leave this rooftop leave this dream Back to lives that tear at the seam
