Election Night

Election Night

Album: Beautiful Collision

Come around for tea

Dance me round and round the kitchen

By the light of my T.V

On the night of the election

Ancient stars will fall into the sea

And the ocean floor sings her sympathy

Drive me miles away

Escape the sky that we lay under

Of all the dreams we cannot shake

We＇re always shaking in our slumber

In the car don＇t let me fall asleep

I might leave my heart here on your vinyl seat

Well the sound of the city＇s now long gone

And in the silence of the park and every darkened cinema

Feel the little changes coming on

So come to me where you belong

Of all the bright machinery

Love＇s the strangest of inventions

How could this all just turn on me?

When all I wanted was perfection

And you are

That＇s what you are to me

You＇re the brightest star when all the world＇s asleep

Well the sound of the city＇s now long gone

And in the silence of the park and every darkened cinema

Feel the little changes coming on

So come to me where you belong

Come to me where you belong
