Streetlights Lyrics

Streetlights lyrics

When the streetlights

Come on the pooling night

Is levied aside

And pressed in twilight

Against our two rooms

I'll see you
tonight



The pavement is aching

Cicadas are crying

The
wine colored air

Breathing thoughts

Through your hair

Breezing to me

Leading me there



I come alive

As the
shadows parade

My hot summer blood

Comes and floods and it
waves

Curbside confessions

No longer afraid

Of what you'll
say



And I find you

Twilit beyond all the cars

The
driveways they sleep

But streetlights will keep

Watch over me

They flicker like stars



And now all the secrets

Carefully
kept inside

Run the streets rad

Our chemicals spread

Washing
us through

Making you mine



I come alive

As the shadows
parade

My hot summer blood

Comes and floods and it waves

Curbside confessions

No longer afraid

Of what you'll say



Now there’re no words

Only the glow in our wires

And so we
will be

You turn slow to me

Our lips at the sun

The hills are
on fire

Oh



I come alive

As the shadows parade

My
hot summer blood

Comes and floods and it waves

Curbside
confessions

No longer afraid

Of what you'll say

Of what
you'll say
