I Could Talk to You All Night

I was under the impression
You'd never read a book at all
Too wrapped up in your aggression
Out on the street and fighting brawls
And now you're talking 'bout the sunset
And how the colors turn bright
Suddenly it seems
That I could talk to you for hours
But these hours go like minutes
I could talk to you all night

I never talk like this with Socs
We keep our feelings to ourselves
I tell my friends I like their parties
Wishing I was somewhere else

I know exactly what you're saying
You gotta fake it to belong
I'd rather read than fight a rumble
But Greasers have to go along

It's like you're always just pretending
It's just a part you have to play
Feels like this pressure's never-ending
There's gotta be a better way
But with you it feels so simple
Something about this feels right
Suddenly it seems
I could talk to you for hours
But these hours go like minutes
I could talk to you all night
I don't want this night to end
I bet our friends are wondering where we've been
Can you imagine what they'd say
If any of them heard us talk this way?

Now don't get me wrong when I say I'm surprised
But I never thought I'd see hope in your eyes
It makes me believe that there may be a chance
For a world beyond the Greasers and the Socs
Could it ever be?

And just like that the movie was over
And we talked so dang much, I didn't even catch the end
It was the first time in my life
Anyone actually listened to me like that

Suddenly it seems
I could talk to you for hours
But these hours go like minutes
I could talk to you all night
