Twinkling Lights Songtext
von Annalise Emerick

There was a place in Maine, not that long ago
Where we would hide away for several months or so
Tucked beneath the pines and under summer skies
A bunch of twenty somethings running barefoot every night

And some of us were new and some had been for years
And a few of us found love, all of us had fears
But every single night, we′d gather by the fire
And sing away the night

And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die
We still have all our stories, like stars in the sky
And we will always remember how we lit up the night
Oh, summers by the lake
Like a million twinkling lights

And the days were only measured by the sun's rise and fall
And we spent our nights out searching for the meaning of it all
Falling deep in love, sneaking out at night
Somehow it just felt right


And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die
We still have all our stories, like stars in the sky
And we will always remember how we lit up the night
Oh, summers by the lake
Like a million twinkling lights
Twinkling lights

Well I never saw it coming, but now I′ll always know
That summer is more than freedom and love will come and go
We may not have it now, but we had it then
We will never be the same, no matter how it ends
Because when we've all grown old, living far away
On our darkest days, we will remember Maine

Cause there's something about a fire and a couple rounds of beer
And we′ll tell ′em all our dreams, love for all to hear

And oh, when the fire burned out and the embers all died
We still had all our stories, like stars in the sky
And we will always remember how we lit up the night

Oh, summers by the lake
Like a million twinkling lights

Twinkling lights (and when the fire burned out and the embers all died)
Twinkling lights (we still had all our stories, like stars in the sky)
Twinkling lights (and we will always remember how we lit up the night)
Twinkling lights (oh, summer's by the lake, like a million-)
Twinkling lights
