Subproject commit 8f30c17c42ed57b49804563f29957e9f4ba22851
Just a worn-out room and the midnight rain
But your gentle touch washes all the pain
We’ve got nothing but time and the shadows here
Lost in cardboard boxes and tears
I found that old sweater you used to wear
With the lingering scent of your raven hair
The floorboards creak as I pull you near
In this empty space, it’s your sigh I hear
Every memory packed in the fading light
But I only want you in my arms tonight
We can leave the past on the dusty floor
'Cause the way you look makes me crave you more
Oh, it’s just cardboard boxes and tears we shed
But I’d rather be pulling you into bed
With your skin on mine and the world on hold
Let the fire burn down in the winter cold
Never let me go
Let the fire burn down in the winter cold
There’s a photograph hidden beneath the fold
Of a passionate night that we never told
Now your fingers trace on my heavy chest
And you’re whispering low that you want me best
Every memory packed in the fading light
But I only want you in my arms tonight
We can leave the past on the dusty floor
'Cause the way you look makes me crave you more
Oh, it’s just cardboard boxes and tears we shed
But I’d rather be pulling you into bed
With your skin on mine and the world on hold
Let the fire burn down in the winter cold
Never let me go
Let the fire burn down in the winter cold
The shadows dance upon the broken frame
A sudden spark to ignite the flame
With every secret only Sayed knows
The rhythm of our passion softly grows
We strip away the sorrow of the years
To build a kingdom from the dust and tears
We can leave the boxes for another day
Right now I just want to love you this way
Oh, it’s just cardboard boxes and tears we shed
But I’d rather be pulling you into bed
With your skin on mine and the world on hold
Let the fire burn down in the winter cold
