Vanilla Twilight Lyrics By Owl City

    the stars lean down to kiss you
    and i lie awake and miss you
    pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere
    ’cause i’ll doze off safe and soundly
    but i’ll miss your arms around me
    i’d send a postcard to you dear
    ’cause i wish you were here

    i’ll watch the night turn light blue
    but it’s not the same without you
    because it takes two to whisper quietly
    the silence isn’t so bad
    ’til i look at my hands and feel sad
    ’cause the spaces between my fingers
    are right where yours fit perfectly
    i’ll find repose in new ways
    though i haven’t slept in two days
    ’cause cold nostalgia chills me to the bone
    but drenched in vanilla twilight
    i’ll sit on the front porch all night
    waistdeep in thought because when i think of you
    i don’t feel so alone

    i don’t feel so alone
    i don’t feel so alone
    as many times as i blink i’ll think of you
    tonight tonight tonight tonight
    i’ll think of you tonight

    when violet eyes get brighter
    and heavy wings grow lighter
    i’ll taste the sky and feel alive again
    and i’ll forget the world that i knew
    but i swear i won’t forget you
    oh if my voice could reach back through the past
    i’d whisper in your ear
    oh darling i wish you were here
