The other side of night Songtext

von Chris Eckman

Though I don't want to stop this
I'm afraid we're headed for
The other side of night
No, I don't want to stop this
But I'm afraid we're headed for
The other side of night
And though I want to think otherwise
We can't be sure we'll make it, in the light
Don't wanna go, the other side of night
Don't want you to go, the other side of night

They say what we start with
Is what we end up with
Who are they anyway?

If it's just a fools errand
A false hope rekindled
I still want you to stay

Your eyes they can burn
The distance between
Every mile I've seen

Don't let the morning catch us
With places to go
And nowhere we wanna be

Chorus
Nighttown's a ghosttown
But all it's stupid letdowns
Have fallen away

Each time you whisper
It's as loud as the trainwreck
Can I keep what you say?

In this city by the river
The estuary glistens
Seabirds fly for you

One can dream of a city
But he better live for the girl
And that's what I'm gonna do
