Streetlights

When the streetlights
Come on the pooling night
Is levied aside
And pressed in twilight
Against our two rooms
I'll see you tonightThe pavement is aching
Cicadas are crying
The wine colored air
Breathing thoughts through your hair
Breezing to me, leading me thereI come alive as the shadows parade
My hot summer blood
Comes and floods and it waves
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid
Of what you'll sayAnd I find you
Twilit beyond all the cars
The driveways they sleep
But streetlights will keep
Watch over me
They flicker like starsAnd now the secrets
Carefully kept inside
Run the streets rad
Our chemicals spread
Washing us through
Making you mineI come alive as the shadows parade
My hot summer blood
Comes and floods and it waves
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid
Of what you'll sayNow there are no words
Only the glow in our wires
And so we will be
You turn slow to me
Our lips at the sun
The hills are on fire, ohI come alive as the shadows parade
My hot summer blood
Comes and floods and it waves
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid
Of what you'll say, of what you'll say
