Afterglow Lyrics & Chords By Bourbon Tabernacle Choir

There's nothing here either one can say
Isn't nothing what you wanted, anyway?
Nothing like a feeling that comes so fast
When you stumble on "nothing lasts"
But I stood and I waited for the love to increase
And it shocked me, baby, when the news was released,
When you told me...

If you're living in somebody's afterglow
Love is something that you'll have to see go
If you feel your ladder is much too tall
Love is something that you'll have to let fall

Thought of leaving here to chance alone
Instead I waited for what I own
Outside my window it looks much too cold
To ever wander from the strength of my home
But you changed everything in your offhand way
You kept your silence and you let me behave so badly...

If you're living in somebody's afterglow
Love is something that you'll have to see go
If you feel your ladder is much too tall
Love is something that you'll have to let fall

Something forced me to look in your face
It could have stripped us of all our grace
But I'm tired of talking to myself
It was worth all my heart-earned wealth
So I centre my mind on the task that's to come
To detach all I have from the solace of one who taught me...
