Sunset by the Lake

[Intro] Soft light on water, slow and gold A gentle breeze, a story told [Verse 1] They walk the edge where the willows lean Two silhouettes in a sunset sheen Laughter echoes over ripples wide Hands brush, a secret spark behind their pride [Pre-Chorus] Beneath the sky, they pause and smile Breathing in the hush, the hush of a while [Chorus] Hold my hand as the daylight fades to amber Laugh with me as the world slips into slumber See the colors kiss the lake in quiet fire Here with you, forever feels like now, not higher [Verse 2] A shared breeze carries wildflowers home Whispered promises in a language of our own Footprints mark the shore like a temporary map They trace tomorrow with a gentle clap [Pre-Chorus] In this frame of gold, time slows its pace Two hearts in sync, in this perfect place [Chorus] Hold my hand as the daylight fades to amber Laugh with me as the world slips into slumber See the colors kiss the lake in quiet fire Here with you, forever feels like now, not higher [Bridge] Crickets tune the dusk, a soft refrain Stars begin to wake, one by one again We stay, we breathe, we watch the day retire Together is the only thing that we desire [Chorus] Hold my hand as the daylight fades to amber Laugh with me as the world slips into slumber See the colors kiss the lake in quiet fire Here with you, forever feels like now, not higher [Outro] The lake keeps glow and whispers low We dream in light that lingers slow
