Streetlights

The receeding moonlight in your hand

Blue leaking paint flickering strands

We were speaking but those words echoed alone

The true words were fleeting

Nothing showed

When the stars shine down from heaven

They will light the streetlights with their song

I said my heart won't run forever

That's alright it's alright it's a lie

You were kneeling at the edge of your bed

Bent pleading the scattered words in your head

And I can see it a shadow cast alone

And I don't know I don't know

When the stars shine down from heaven

They will leave a timid line drawn in our hearts

Well and that line burns forever

But it's a lie it's a lie it's alright

Oh it's a lie it's a lie it's alright
