Lost In Wisconsin Twilight
When the day is unwinding
And the street lights come on
All the people so tiny
Huddle safe in their homes
That's when I go out walking
In the nights sweet perfume
Down the long paths of silence
That remind me of you
These are the times when I miss you the most
When the sun touches down in the trees like a ghost
When the thought of your smile and the light on your face
All disappear into space
Twilight
Twilight
The hoods on the hilltop
Smoke their brown cigarettes
And the stars in the cosmos
Turn a soft pirouette
A ballet of old love songs
Dance around in the wind
And I know there's no encore
To the show we were in
These are the times when I miss you the most
When the sun touches down in the trees like a ghost
When the thought of your smile and the light on your face
All disappear into space
Twilight
Twilight
I hope that you're out there somewhere
Happy, strong and beautiful
I hope that you won't forget
Time repents
And heals the heart
Did your clouds rain forgiveness
Did your anger subside
Did the moon bring you comfort
From the demons inside
These are the times when I miss you the most
When the sun touches down in the trees like a ghost
When the thought of your smile and the light on your face
And the steps that you took that you can't retrace
The blackbirds, the branches, the bad mistakes
All disappear into space
Twilight
Twilight
