charlie smith (us) – the ballad of dusk & dawn lyrics

[verse 1]
beneath the trees at forest’s edge, on the bank of a gentle stream
in a peaceful prairie paradise, like something from a dream
there met a pair whose days and nights have long since come and gone;
listen to the topsy+turvy tale of dusk and dawn

[verse 2]
one was pulled toward darkness and the other drawn by light—
dawn would rise to greet the sun, while dusk embraced the night
dawn would dance with b+tterflies and songbirds in the thickets;
dusk saw symbols of their love in fireflies, owls, and crickets

[chorus]
but together, each night, they’d play a lovely, lilting lullaby;
dusk would sing the lower notes and dawn would sing the high;
a strange duet—so magical, their twilight serenade
the whole world turned to marvel at the harmonies they made

[verse 3]
wintering and summering between the falls and springs
dusk and dawn had found the perfect place to spread their wings
basking in the morning sun and bathing in the moon;
but alas, the shadows shifted and their peace was gone too soon

[verse 4]
the others staked their claims along the seekers’ ancient trails
to grind their harvest into dust and cart it off on rails;
they blocked the stream and, to a steely spire of barbs and spines
piped the power through a stretch of twisted, tangled tines
[chorus]
but together, each night, they’d play a lovely, lilting lullaby;
dusk would sing the lower notes and dawn would sing the high;
a strange duet—so magical, their twilight serenade
the whole world turned to marvel at the harmonies they made

[bridge]
knowing that they couldn’t halt the others’ ceaseless march
dusk and dawn made their escape across an angel’s arch
to set out on a journey that would shape the stars above—
from first to last they sang their song: the melody of love

[chorus]
and together, each night, they’d play a lovely, lilting lullaby;
dusk would sing the lower notes and dawn would sing the high;
a strange duet—so magical, their twilight serenade
the whole world turned to marvel at the harmonies they made
