Song lyrics
Just when the days start getting colder I walk the streets I never knew 
And there're some words I never told you 
The sound rings out like the truth 

And if you could see what's come over me then you would know 
'Cause I'm walking free 
Wind at my back 
Bathed in afterglow 

And as I sit here in this dark room all I seem to feel is light 
And I see color 
I see the maroon in the blood of this life that's ours 

And if you could see what's come over me then you would know 
'Cause I'm walking free 
Wind at my back 
Bathed in after

Watch the sun
It paints an orange sky 
Lay me down and feel the day has gone by 

Just when the day 
Just when the day 
Oh
Oh 

Just when the days start getting longer I walk the streets I never knew 
And the sun comes out for you 

And if you could see what's come over me then you would know 
'Cause I'm walking free 
Wind at my back 
Bathed in after

'Cause I'm walking free 
Wind at my back 
Bathed in afterglow
Oh
Oh

I don't mean to be cliche, but this song has always spoken to me. I was never really suicidal at all, but the melancholy tone of it speaks to me in spades...

Uh....

Vanessa lights my day when it's very very dark...

Fan for life, hopefully. ♥

BTW, get Heroes & Thieves (2007), People!!!!

♥♥♥

P.S. Afterglow, Private Radio and Who's To Say were the best songs on Harmonium. All albums that were released by this talent were great. They improve as she went along, and I would die and go to "heaven" if I could see her a few times live...

esp. this song!!!!!!!!!
