Noa - Explain The Night lyrics

Explain the night to me

Explain the stars

Explain the way I feel

Explain the scars

Explain the outline of the trees against the sky

Explain the tangled words of love we can't untie

Explain the night to me

Explain the black

And how the light was lost

And how to get it back

Explain the rising of the waves to swallow sand

Explain how difficult it is to hold your hand

We are wrapped around our needing

In a drunken trance

Will you swing and sway me slowly

And pretend to dance

We are wrapped around our sorrow

In a strong embrace

And between your temple and your eye I hide my face

Explain the night to me

The pregnant moon

Explain the sudden urge

The empty room

Explain the way to blue

And all the space

Explain the makeup swiftly streaked across my face

Explain the night to me

Explain the past

Explain the thrill of love

And why it cannot last

Explain the rings that slowly spread across the lake

And how to someday learn to live with my mistakes

We are wrapped around our needing

In a drunken trance

Will you swing and sway me slowly

And pretend to dance

We are wrapped around our sorrow

In a strong embrace

And between your temple and your eye I hide my face
