Nighttime settling, no more light to be seen
The summer air is departing
And leaves just the two of us standing here
Gazing at trails left behind in the sky that soon will disappear
Falling steadily, nothing moves, no one speaks
The light is still far away
As it sways, being swayed, dancing back and forth
Rising above, higher still, and we watch until it is no more
♪
Hey, if I could ask a question of you
Do you believe that we have to be lonely
If we choose to say goodbye?
I turn my eyes to the fireworks lighting up the night sky
The summer's leaving
But it leaves us with a feeling so warm
We find that we are unable to let go
You take my hand
As if you need to find a reason to
Hold a little tighter, but trust me, I know
♪
Nighttime, comes a breeze passing through gently
We do not say anything, there's no need
Just the two of us standing here
Under the light of the moon floating in the sky
It's come the time
For me to leave – "See you soon" "Think of me"
But neither one find the words to express
All the rest, so it goes unheard
Lost in the radiant light up above our heads
"We'll be okay..."
La, la, as it seems you are starting to lie
With that expression as you tell me goodbye
Please don't forget me
We may say but there is really no point
When we are blinded by tears in our eyes
♪
Nighttime settling, no more light to be seen
The summer air is departing
And leaves just the two of us standing here
Listen to echoes of fireworks way up there
And laughing
The summer's leaving
But it leaves us with a feeling so warm
We find that we are unable to let go
We stay right here
As if to try and find me meaning behind
The lights that scatter this lingering glow
I had a dream where you
And I are finally up and yet
We find that we are unable to let go
I won't forget you, but although
That voice had faded to nothing
That's a story that we still don't know
