matt maltese - florence lyrics

[verse 1]
i saw florence sing tonight
her earrings hanging in the light
days before that old july
i saw a silence in her eyes
and i know heaven’s here tonight
i know heaven’s here tonight, i know

[verse 2]
she graced the stage with sweet arrest
and paused to smoke her cigarettes
sang of love and she sang of friends
she sang of how the winter ends
and i know heaven’s here tonight
i know heaven’s here tonight, i know
[refrain]
she looks at you straight in the eye
and with a warm and wise goodbye
said, oh, you’d have to be a man to know
i’ve seen them laugh and i’ve seen them cry
but i still can’t figure out this life
oh, i’d have to be a man to know

[verse 3]
her voice it pulls and runs tonight
reminds me of a love once mine
dumb and sweet untampered nights
drinking all your parents’ wine
and i would take off all your clothes
i would take off all your clothes again

[verse 4]
florence sings i escape a while
from feeling lost and broken wide
funny how you think you find
the answers no one ever finds
guess i am just a fickle child
i’m just a fickle child still

[refrain]
she looks at you straight in the eye
and with a warm and wise goodbye
said oh you’d have to be a man to know
i’ve seen them bleed and i’ve seen them smile
but i still can’t figure out this life
oh i’d have to be a man to know
[refrain]
oh she looks at you straight in the eye
and with a warm and wise goodbye
says oh you’d have to be a man to know
dream all you want of a simpler time
but this ain’t 1965
and oh you’d have to be a man to know
oh you’d have to be a man to know
oh you’d have to be a man to know

[outro]
i saw florence sing tonight
her earrings hanging in the light
days before that old july
i saw a silence in her eyes
and i know heaven’s here tonight
i know heaven’s here tonight, i know
