GRACE POTTER AND THE NOCTURNALS - One Short Night lyrics

rate me

One short night with a stranger

One full moon over my head

One false move and it's over

So I always think of what we said, my baby

Strange how heavy my heart is

Strange how dark it is tonight

Strange the way this all started

I guess I'm losing track of wrong and right

And as the lights go dim

I lie down with him

And as I'm lying there

I can only smell your hair

It's like your across the hall

With your ear glued to the wall

And as I move to let him in I can

Feel you crawl under my skin

And I can feel you from the inside

Prowling like a devil that I try to hide

I can feel your heart beating

Closer than the poison of my pride

Caught up in a moment

I thought I'd feel no shame because I

Didn't have tell you lies

When the daylight came but now

Down goes that silver tear

Down goes my golden year

Down we go in a water slide

That's made up of the tears I've cried

And I can feel you from the inside

Prowling like a devil that I try to hide

I can feel your heart beating

Closer than the poison of my pride

I can feel you, you're touching me

I look at him but it's you I see, baby

I can feel your heart beating

Closer than the poison of my pride

One short night

One short night
