strange cathedrals - this night lyrics

Loading...

spent my time in night cafes
watching faces so well known to me
cosy lights and yellowed pictures
old songs race against the mutter
the black+lighted bar
fades through the smoke
“hey guy, what’s going on?”
i don’t know him at all

this night, too precious to waste
this night, the same old race

carved old pair in intimate talk
pay their drinks… next month
beside he chainsmokes cigarettes
while looking deeply into her eyes
he claims to be important
listening to another sermon
the figments of his life
“told your +n+lyst about this?”

this night…

another drink for me! got a light?
nice to meet you! know that song!
bum a cigarette? see you again!
fine night tonight! treat you a drink?
the bars close around midnight
and neon+light hurts my eyes
i see my wrinkles at the mirror wall
others wore the night in their eyes
comedians in blackface
they dress all alike
they fool themselves
to be forever young

this night…

another…
and the clock ticks faster and faster
“roll up your sleevers and get started”, he said
this night, too precious to waste
this life, too precious to waste
this time, too precious to waste
this thing, too precious to waste
