Verse
I
Set against a twilight sky, the world's looking so damn good
Amber rose and fire gold can slow dance one more time.
And the old neighborhood's filled with by-gone lovers
As fading initials shine on the walls.
And everything's pulsing like its alive
So yesterday doesn't seem gone.
Chorus
Against a twilight sky,
Against a twilight sky,
Against a twilight sky.
Verse II
Mama moved after daddy died, but the old house still lives on
And evening light brings out passing cars as radios play the old songs.
That wooden porch has the same old aches.
As friends call outside the screen door.
And just for a moment you find that your back
Where all of your dreams began.
To Chorus
Bridge
Going home, the question comes: Can you really go back?
'Cause you just set yourself up to always fall down.
But, hey, there's some pleasure in that.
To Chorus
Verse III
Set against a twilight sky, the world's looking so damn good
Amber rose and fire gold will slow dance one more time.
Mmmm, Mmmm, against a twilight sky.
