Afterglow

We’re at the afterglow
Of what we both do know
Know as the spring of our youth
We’ve loved and shared the dawn
And hoped that we’d go on
'Cause even that dawn had to go
Love has to cry
But need not die
Heart has to sigh
The test of time
We go through days and through years
Calloused by doubts, joys and fears
Love has to grow
But need not go
Heart has to know
The test of time
We’re at the afterglow
And though we both do know
How far we are from the dawn
That second golden dawn
When love is true
Still I’ll wait
I’ll wait for second dawn and you
Love’s golden dawn and you
