Nighttime Person
I’m a nighttime person And when everyone’s asleep I like to walk from room To quiet room and listen to the fridge weep I like the hum of the streetlight Coming in through the gap I like the whine of the washer I’m a nighttime sav I like the crease in the paper And the whisper of a page I like the bolt out of cover When the spiders feeling brave Have you ever seen a moonbow? Have you ever seen a ghost? I’m a nighttime person I like the nighttime most I keep the hours of a printer I keep the cross in the park The jig is up when your eyelid’s shut Don’t want to lie in the dark Don’t want to sing with the Angles Don’t want to dance with the damned Just want to run under the midnight sun With the blood in my hands Letras de cancionesMmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Tonight was a night unlike Any other I was disturbed by the light Of the nighttime’s mother The orange glow of the streetlights Had been replaced by a pale And lonesome white I pulled open the living room Curtains wide No moon could I see in the nighttime sky The sodium bulbs had been replaced Now my sacred night is a different place! (They’re energy efficient, guess that’s good) I’m a nighttime person And when everyone’s in bed I like to watch old re-runs Until my eyes are dead I like the crease in the paper And the whisper of a page I like the bolt out of cover When the spiders feeling brave Don’t want to sing with the Angles Don’t want to dance with the damned I wanna run under the midnight sun With the blood in my hands Have you ever seen a moonbow? Have you ever seen a ghost? I’m a nighttime person I like the nighttime most I’m a nighttime person Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm From Letras Mania
