Night Lights

 

Night Lights

---

Lights always feel much brighter

Whenever the night's alive

In the after hours, we drink martini flowers

When the music plays

Infinity knows not time nor hour

That's when I stand by your side

---

We stand on stage, holding hands

Our eyes twinkling for the invisible fans

They all stare back, their waving hands

Eyes wide open in

Admiration

A dream of our imagination

Give you and I a standing ovation

---

Every light upon our smiling faces say

Let us all join hands and sing those songs from yesterday

The ones we wrote when we had

Much more time to sing them

During recess, snack-time

They all seemed to last a lifetime

---

Close your eyes and look at the night sky

See the moonlight?

We are lost in a concert for the starlight

Nobody wants to be alone now

Nobody wants to be an orphan

---

The audience shows us no resistance

Our costumes sparkling from a distance

These glamorous nights

If only they could fight to live through the morning's power

The amorous lights have our faces glowing

While all the outside stares in at our loving

The unconventional beauty

---

Can't we keep on dancing after hours?

Hours after closing

Let the music play and sound thereafter

Lust and passion, oh, song and laughter

Feels like our love is never rationed

---

Just keep on singing, close those doors

We will dance until the morning calls

When the lights are dimmer and the

Sun is shining

The morning light never seems as bright

As the night's
