Permanent Echo

Johnny and I were at a disco
He said, "You better be careful
This one might bite"

She was wearing a red dress
Shinny sparkling sequins
High heels and stockings
To her thighs

She said, "You look like a bad dance"
I said, "Well that depends
It ain't a bad dance
If you're having a good time"

That's when I kissed
But yeah when I kissed her
Rather impossibly
She had your eyes

The universe
Seems to bring me
Back to you
Honestly
I don't know
How you're so beautiful

Johnny lost his cellphone
I found my ego
We left the disco
Wandered to the East side

We met some hops-bops
Danced on rooftops
Slithered down the stairwells
Crawled into a dive

Bouncer asked for a password
Johnny said, "Does cash work?"
He said, "It doesn't hurt
Enjoy your night"

Some cat on a saxophone
Was playing a new song
Of course it was our song
"Because the Night"

The universe
Seems to bring me
Back to you
Honestly
I don't know
How you're so beautiful

Didn't know
Didn't see
You would haunt me
A permanent echo
A permanent echo

The entire planet is drinking tonight
Women shinning bright as fire
But she's all that's on your mind
So you scream to the Heavens
"Why do you torment me!"
And a voice repeats it back
From the deep

A permanent echo
A permanent echo

The universe
Seems to bring me
Back to you
Honestly
I don't know
How you're so beautiful
