Nightlife Lyrics
We used to ask where the power came from, and when it would go out,
What would we do when it got dark? Hold candles to our doubts,
On the first day of school, you stopped holding my hand,
The day the streets opened wide stole my letters, talked you
out and inside,
But you loved the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife never seemed to suit you.
So I found someone else to ask my questions to
With eyes like candles on the wall, a flash of cobalt blue
He wasn't quite like you, until you ran away
I left my coat by the stairs, you didn't notice I had nothing to say
But you love the nightlife, always a new shade of blue
The swiss army jacknife never seemed to suit you.
Was it too dull for you, was it too dull for you,
Was it too dull for you,
I would have carved these brittle bones,
If you'd asked me to
But you love the nightlife
You love the nightlife
You love the nightlife
But will it ever love you?
