One Night

The city's asleep
Our shades shiver on the street
Like stains just waiting to fade
The few words you speak
Come as smoke, go as breeze
Our cigarettes sizzle away
You say there's no reason to play
You say there's no need to entertain

You're tired and confused
You've felt underused
Like a little gap in between
The song that's been stuck
In your head these past weeks
Is about being a beautiful freak
You flinch and then you move away
You say one night is all you can take

And you won't be around
And you won't be around
When the blurry black sky burns to blue
And the little things remind me of you

Your bicycle chained to a tree
Between you and me
Your eyes glued to the ground
The few destinations I've joyfully reached
Were by holding the map upside down
So if you're a mountain I'll be your cloud
I'll be the whisper, the root of your shout

'Cause I want to be around
I want to be around
I want to be around
When the blurry black sky burns to blue
I want all little things to remind me of you
I want to look up at the sun and the moon
Like two bodies in line
Like me and you
Like me and you
