As the world gets darker our sights float upwards.
But moonlight will not save you from unbearable truth.
We’re spinning tops out in the night, we kiss by lamp light.
Cobblestones will chip your teeth as we stumble down the street.
But as long as a light is up the back of the stairs,
I don’t mind the rain and the midnight air,
As I fall homewards.
My house is in the distance. Oh feet, don’t fail me.
‘Cause some days you wouldn’t believe, I wear a face like concrete.
I reach my door, turn the key lightly. That light still blinds me.
I wave the ghosts out of my way and fall down for one more day.
But as long as a light is up the back of the stairs,
I don’t mind the rain and the midnight air,
As I fall homewards.
