Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Just a flash in the night
Just a flash in the night
Just a flash in the night
[Verse 2]
As the break of dawn came closer
All my hopes seemed so forlorn
The misty signs of laughter
And the light eluded all
And my despair was caught in motion
A face just barely true
Shadows in blue
[Verse 3]
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
[Verse 4]
In the changing of the season
Releasing one lost name
The scar once healed forever
Dissolving in the rain
A twig snapped in the clearing
A glimpse of golden skin
Our face within
[Verse 5]
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
[Verse 6]
And my despair was caught in motion
A face just barely true
[Verse 7]
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
[Verse 8]
And my despair was caught in motion
A face just barely true
[Verse 9]
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
[Verse 10]
Just a flash in the night
Just a flash in the night
Just a flash in the night
Just a flash in the night
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
A flash in the night
