Tonight's The Kind Of Night - Noah & The Whale

There’s a boy

with his head

pressed up

to the window

Of a bus

heading out of town

In his breath

on the glass

he draws

with his finger

A map of the roads

they go down

Circles of street lights

are the only signal

That there’s people

out there in the black

He waves goodbye

to the town

he grew up in

he knows that he’ll

never come back

The night outside

is five below

his heart is

pumping blood

On his lips

a perfect smile

his eyes begin to flood

because tonight’s

the kind of night

Where everything

could change

Tonight’s the

kind of night

where everything

could change

The rumble strip clack

and the rattling frame

Beat out a pulse

on his head

The engine hums

a humble tune

a melody of rubber

and lead

Under lamp light glow

and paradise stars

an infinity of

dancing white light

He sees that his debt

is to experience only

and not to those

who’d plan out his life

The night outside

is five below

the moon is

in the sky

His heart is

full of perfect joy

he whispers his goodbye

because tonight’s

the kind of night

Where everything

could change

Tonight’s the

kind of night

where everything

could change

And tonight he’s not

gonna come

back home

Oh tonight he’s not

gonna come

back home

Oh tonight he’s not

gonna come

back home

Ohhh

Ohhh

Oh tonight’s

the kind of night

where everything

could change

Tonight’s the

kind of night

where everything

could change

Tonight’s the

kind of night

where everything

could change

Tonight’s the

kind of night

where everything

could change
