Still In the Night

Singing I love you I’m going to miss you dear Singing for the backs against your wall Here’s to life And everything we cannot have Outside the bar and into the hills The dust settles itself Once as a man he knew it all Now the pavement Will not break his fall Singing for the nights I missed you dear Singing for the nights That you’re still here Sing us away from the shadows of the sky A melody for the days that pass us by Yonder toward the gates of eternity Sing us away from the morning please After the sun is at its best and fine She uncorks a bottle of the sinners wine We dine, we sing We know not what the other means Singing for the nights I missed you dear Singing for the nights That you’re still here
