|
when the night came and took us |
|
and the jukebox was turned up |
|
with the light of our choices |
|
we did not lose our voices |
|
and the songs barely left us |
|
and the waitress caught her breath |
|
we rose to the surface |
|
to fulfill our purpose |
|
as we walked past some staring |
|
i noticed you daring |
|
eyes to be carrying |
|
that smile you've been wearing |
|
in the graze of those screams |
|
we decided to go free |
|
in the haze of our dreams we |
|
saw possibilities |
|
and in a week maybe less you |
|
were packing your bags to |
|
leave, while you still knew |
|
the reasons you needed to |
|
on the way to the train you |
|
you seemed to be brand new |
|
with your hair flowing through |
|
the open window to, the moon |
|
in front of the station |
|
someone who was waitin' |
|
for his lover to wave to him |
|
got knocked to the pavement |
|
by the ambulance light |
|
we decided to stay awake |
|
for fear that we wouldn't meet |
|
someone else to greet |
