White Night

Hey- it's been awhile since I clapped eyes on you, what have you been up to?
If you're staying in town then we can stay awake from midnight 'til high noon
Always with your heart in hand
Feeling your way in the dark
Never bought it when you said you had a plan

I even miss the times that I forget, but maybe that was the idea
Coming up and falling down- it seems to all make sense now that you're here
Life is just a game but
You still like it when you score
Never bought it when you said that less is more

It's good to see you again
It's been way to long my friend
Well you look as good as new
And now the night is shining through

Reflecting off the sky
The whole city's floating by
Throw your caution to the wind
Those days are gone for good my friend

Trying to take the subterraneans seriously when they gave their sermons
Going as the crow flies at night, straight until morning was always fun
Winding down the alleyways
The windows shining out
Always bought what all the fuss was about

It's good to see you again
It's been way too long my friend
Well you look as good as new
Now the night is shining through

Reflecting off the sky
The whole city's floating by
Throw your caution to the wind
Those days are gone for good my friend
