lyrics

Last Night’s Stars

When moonlight it spills
Across your skin
Without speaking a word
It’s time to begin
In a pattern of shadows
Desire remains
One kiss before dawn
And all will be changed

When moonlight spills over the world
And the edges are smudged
When the light is muted
I have a new sense of distance
I float through ten crowds hanging on
To last night’s stars
Though the day is bleaching
It won’t stop these feelings
Coming on
Come on

Come on
The endlessness of evening
Come on
The urgency of night
Come on
Allowing you concessions
When you dim the light

This morning
I am dressed in dreams
If not for you
This world I never would see
Floating through the rush of one hundred long faces
When the sun is bleaching last night’s stars from the ceiling
Hang on
Hang on
Hang on
To whatever you can
Hang on
Like they’re invisible
Hang on
In Monday morning’s black and grey
I am dressed in dreams

Come on
The endlessness of evening
Come on
The urgency of night
Come on
Allowing you concessions
When you dim the light

Stay
Stay the whole night
And don’t
Run away
In the light
And if last night’s stars weren’t real
I don’t care
Close my eyes
And I’ll find you there

Come on
Come on
Come on
