Held In The Arms Of Your Words Lyrics - The Place We Ran From - Tired Pony

This light at the end of the day 

When even the highways seem still 

The map in my hands folded shut 

There isn't one magical word 

But a carnival of them instead 

Like an old silent cinema screen 

In this light you are framed classically 

Just a painting that hangs in my head 

That I know like the back of my hand 

And with the sun set, the neon awakes 

And the cold colors dance on your skin 

Finally the modern makes sense to me 

You're effortless, you know you are 

And all I wanna do 

Is let you lead me off into the dusk 

Our shadows kiss before we do 

Right here in the dark 

I revel in the calm before the storm 

The garden is haunted by us 

And every mistake that we've made 

Is at peace 'cause it led us both here 

The thought that just burns into me 

Of you in the ink of the night 

Is the breath-taking danger of you 

You're effortless, you know you are 

And all I wanna do 

Is let you lead me off into the dusk 

Our shadows kiss before we do 

Right here in the dark 

I revel in the calm before the storm 

This is life, this is all I want from life 

It's the fervor and the tenderness combined 

In the dark, in the ever-falling dark 

We are anchorless, adrift but barely notice 

You're effortless, you know you are 

And all I wanna do 

Is let you lead me off into the dusk 

Our shadows kiss before we do 

Right here in the dark 

I revel in the calm before the storm 

You're effortless, you know you are 

And all I wanna do 

Is let you lead me off into the dusk 

Our shadows kiss before we do 

Right here in the dark 

I revel in the calm before the storm 

You're effortless, you know you are 

And all I wanna do 

Is let you lead me off into the dusk
