Bic Runga - Night Will Close Us Down lyrics

rate me

From the New Zealand movie "Channelling Baby"

If gravity let us go

We would all go flying

And I'll meet you somewhere in the milky night

Away past the satellites

The breeze is dressed so lightly

And it breathes onto this fire escape

Where all our secrets melt like ice

Leaving only water

Night will close us down

And change the view

And I'll promise you what I can

I forget myself when I'm with you

Please remind me who I am

Dancing like a landslide

Swinging round the living room

We fall like sudden rain from sullen skies

Singing to the radio's tune

Say my name aloud

And make it new

And I'll promise you what I can

I forget myself when I'm with you

Please remind me who I am

Day so soon, hear all the traffic move

The sirens all fill this room till we both have to shout

From the road, watching the stars explode

You and I breathe so slow
