Forgive Durden - For A Dreamer, Night's The Only Time Of Day lyrics

The busy streets.

And the even busier

Patrons and vehicles

Argue my elusive steps

Through the blur of urgency

Here, I'm always on my toes

Until an abrupt blond door

Stowing a porcelain blond girl

Knock me right onto my back

And for a moment we're alone

And we both know that we're trapped

If morning never brings

Salvation for either one of us

Leave me and save yourself

I'll only slow you down

Breathe in slowly.

Are you listening?

On this muted block

Everything is paused

Your glow, blinding, breaches my pupils

I taste your skin

I see our kids

I manage to siphon

Some breathe from out my gut

Tell you to take my hand and run.

I'll be waiting for you to come home.

Extra! Extra!

Read all about it!

A corporate head's been murdered!

His secretary found him.

Scandal! Slander!

Catch all the gossip

From what I hear

The chief executive deserved it.

Let's leave tonight at dusk

When the lights shine bright.

Miles of cracked, crooked, paths

Lit by buzzing filament

And neon glass.

If morning never brings salvation,

Leave me and save yourself.

I'll always love you.
