«For the night to last»
Tekst: Esben Meyer Kristensen Musikk: Esben Meyer Kristensen
The greetings of the sparrows at the first lightAs I’m clingin’ on to the night
I’m pretending that tomorrow ain’t here yet
As I’m failing once again to reset
Oh my oh my for how long have I
been looking through the vulture’s eye?
And seen me lying there with that hollow stare
Just livin’ by the hourglass
Just hopin’ for the the night to last
There’s a ragin’ fire right below this wire
I’ve been walkin’on for way too long
And there’s a fadin’ smile in the face of denial
As I’m failing once again to move on
Oh my oh my for how long have I
been looking through the vulture’s eye?
And seen me lying there with that hollow stare
Just livin’ by the hourglass
Just hopin’ for the the night to last
My eyes are gettin’ heavy, almost outta here
But there’s a whisper in my ear; “Hey wake up”
Oh my oh my for how long have I
been looking through the vulture’s eye?
And seen me lying there with that hollow stare
Just livin’ by the hourglass
Just hopin’ for the the night to last
Oh my oh my for how long have I
been looking through the vulture’s eye?
And seen me lying there with that hollow stare
Just livin’ by the hourglass
Oh my oh my for how long have I
been looking through the vulture’s eye?
And seen me lying there with that hollow stare
Just livin’ by the hourglass
Just hopin’ for the the night to last!
For the night to last!
Yeah!
Oh my my oh my!
Hey! Hey!
Oh my oh my for how long have I
been looking through the vulture’s eye?
And seen me lying there with that hollow stare
Just livin’ by the hourglass
Just hopin’ for the the night to last
