Lying Through The Night Lyrics

Throw another memory on the fire

To keep us warm against the gray

It always helps the conversation

When you already know

What everyone's gonna say

We know the rhythms that seduce us

Into thinking life makes sense

Put on that record that we all know by heart

It's such a comfortable

And classic defense

And the world will keep on turning

And the sky will soon be bright

And there's no one gonna stop us

From lying through the night

Within the borders we've established

We are as safe as anything

We know how to keep away the silence

Without saying a word

About the walls we're building

There are no mysteries or secrets

At least not when we gather here

We aren't turning into people we don't like

We will still be this close

As the months turn to years

And the world will keep on turning

And the sky will soon be bright

And there's no one gonna stop us

From lying through the night

How about another cup of coffee

I can feel the cold creep round

The windowpane

Throw another metaphor on the fire

To keep us warm against the gray

It always helps the conversation

When you don't think about

When you're going away

And the world will keep on turning

And the sky will soon be bright

And there's no one gonna stop us

From lying through the night

How about another cup of coffee

I can feel the cold reach through

The windowpane

Windowpane
