The Way You Say Goodnight (Official Audio)

Original Song Lyrics by Shawn Westerberg Produced by Shawn Westerberg WORDS The Way You Say Goodnight [Verse 1] You turn the porch light gold with one small touch And make the long road home feel not so long I had a thousand clever things to say Then you looked up, and every word went wrong [Pre-Chorus] You know the map of every guarded room You find the door without a key And when the evening gathers round us You make the whole wide world feel small to me [Chorus] The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Turns a simple word to a promise in the dark The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Leaves a little wildfire burning in my heart The way you say goodnight, I carry it till morning The way you say goodnight, like a vow without a warning The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Makes me believe that love can get it right [Verse 2] You speak in constellations, calm and clear While all my grand philosophies unwind Your laugh can rearrange the architecture Of every doubt I built inside my mind [Pre-Chorus] No gilded speech could ever quite describe The rare and incandescent truth That every road I thought would lead me somewhere Was only learning how to lead me to you [Chorus] The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Turns a simple word to a promise in the dark The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Leaves a little wildfire burning in my heart The way you say goodnight, I carry it till morning The way you say goodnight, like a vow without a warning The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Makes me believe that love can get it right [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] If years should weather every road we take If time should test the tenderness we know I’ll meet you where the day gives way to dusk And hear that one sweet sentence steal the show [Final Chorus] The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Turns a simple word to a promise in the dark The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Leaves a little wildfire burning in my heart The way you say goodnight, I carry it till morning The way you say goodnight, like a vow without a warning The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight Makes me believe that love can get it right The way you say goodnight, the way you say goodnight I’ll choose you every day and every night [Outro] The way you say goodnight The way you say goodnight
