Afterglow by Monika XYZ

[Verse 1]
When the night begins to fade,
All our shadows slip away.
On your pillow, light is soft,
Still I feel you in my thoughts.

Every whisper from the dark
Stays like fingerprints on my heart.
Sun is creeping through the blinds,
But you’re still running through my mind.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every color turns to gold,
As our story still unfolds.

[Chorus]
In the afterglow, I feel you near,
Like a warmth that kills my fear.
In the afterglow, I close my eyes,
You’re the light behind my sky.
In the afterglow, don’t let me go,
Hold me while the morning grows.
In the afterglow, I start to see,
What you really mean to me.

[Verse 2]
All the music from last night
Still is humming in my head.
Every laugh we couldn’t hide
Echoes softly deep inside.

I’m not ready to pretend
This is just another end.
Every breath you leave behind
Stays like daylight in my mind.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every color turns to gold,
As our story still unfolds.

[Chorus]
In the afterglow, I feel you near,
Like a warmth that kills my fear.
In the afterglow, I close my eyes,
You’re the light behind my sky.
In the afterglow, don’t let me go,
Hold me while the morning grows.
In the afterglow, I start to see,
What you really mean to me.

[Bridge – soft, emotional]
Mmm… oh-oh… stay…
Let this feeling never gray…
Mmm… oh-oh… please…
You’re the calm inside my breeze…

[Final Chorus]
In the afterglow, I feel you near,
Through the silence, you are clear.
In the afterglow, I won’t deny,
You’re the flame that never dies.
In the afterglow, don’t let me go,
You’re the home I’ve come to know.
In the afterglow, just hold me tight,
You’re my morning after night.
