we're at the afterglow

of what we both do know

know as the spring of our youth

we've loved and shared the dawn

and hoped that we go on

cause even that dawn had to go

love has to cry

but need not die

heart has to sigh

the test of time

we go through days and through years

calloused by doubts joys and fears

love has to grow

but need not go

heart has to know the test of time

we're at the afterglow

and though we both do know

how far we are from that dawn

that second golden dawn

when love is true

still i'll wait i'll wait

for second dawn and you

love's golden dawn and you
