lyrics

well we've been kickin' it here for a few good years,
and as long as i can remember,
we've been pretending like,
we haven't aged a day.

the roads keep getting wider,
and the moon keeps getting higher,
and all the dreams we had,
caught fire while we slept,

and our houses they have shifted
their foundations they are twisted
yeah this room has seen,
its fair share of the blues.

well the only devils here,
are in all the things we fear,
and they get worse and worse,
the longer that we stay.

the cigarette's i crave,
bring me closer to my grave,
but my smoke rings
bring me back down here to earth.

the beauty that i see,
in all simplicity,
reminds me of the days
i choose to keep.

and we forget the things we've said,
yeah we hide them in our beds,
a story that's too long
to tell right now.


well i came across a girl,
who was dancing by herself,
and singing to
and invisible crowd

i watched her from my car,
i wish i knew her name,
i wish that she was,
someone i could save.

to all the friends we've lost,
it all comes at a cost,
but i just can't
afford to lose you too.

but that's not for me to choose,
that decision my dear, is for all and only you.

about

thenight Sydney, Australia

thenight (originally she's themorning and thenight) spawned from the song writing of lead singer Neal Critchley.

From this, add a little bit of rhythm here, a sprinkle of strings, and a dash of melody over there, and you have made yourself a band with great integrity and dedication. We are thenight, and we will have you singing along in no time. ... more
