Before It Gets Dark Songtext
von Daria Mirea

I′ve been listening to my heart beating
Counting the seconds before you're leaving
It′s 7 p.m. and the summer's young
So many words at the tip of my tongue

I've been listening to your heart beating
Counting your freckles while you′re sleeping
It′s 7 p.m. and the sky's turning red
Please don′t go, stay with me instead

So chase a sunset with me
I'll chase a sunset with you
I′ll look at you like all my world is painted blue
Like your eyes
Feel my temperature rise
And all I want is for you to want me back
Before it gets dark

I've been listening to your steps leaving
Counting the weeks before we′re meeting
It's 8 p.m., now the summer's old
And I′m counting the lies that you told


The sky is dark, my heart is bleeding
August is gone, the train is leaving
It′s 8 p.m. and my eyes are red
You didn't stay, you chose to go instead

So chase a sunset with me
I′ll chase a sunset with you
I'll look at you like all my world is painted blue
Like your eyes
Feel my temperature rise
And all I want is for you to want me back
Before it gets dark

Hurry up, September′s here
And your face is nowhere near
It's 9 p.m., now the summer′s old
I counted the lies that you told

You chased a sunset with me
I chased a sunset with you
I looked at you like all my world was painted blue
Like your eyes
Felt my temperature rise
And all I wanted was for you to want me back
But then it got dark

But then it got dark
