Matthew and the Atlas On a Midnight Street song lyrics

I'm lost on an evening tide

a red ocean into a northern sky

and the deep water moves like gray ribbons on

the wind.

I've always seen the beauty in it.

it's a slow change, it's hard to reconize it

in the mist of the modern age

Always dark in the dawn

Al... ways in the dawn.

as the light shown

we were living in the dark

Now the thrill is gone.

Yeah we couldn't find a spark

in that failing light

We were pulling at the seams

yeah it seemed to me

we were living in a dream

we were living in a ... dream

See I don't want to let her down

it's a fear in the dark

I want to be around

to see my daughter grow older

in a world that still has some beauty

It's a siren on a midnight street

when noones listening it's hard to compete

for each man's meaning is as large as the world he's living in

The world he's living in

as the light it showed

we were living in the dark.

now the thrill is gone

yeah we could't find a spark

in that failing light

we were pulling at the seams

yeah it seemed to me

we were living in a dream

we were living in a ... dream

we were living in the dark

yeah we couldn't find a spark

in that failing light, we were pulling at the seams

yeah it seemed to me

we were living in a dream

we were living in a ...

as the light shown, we were living it the dark

now the thrill is gone

we could't find a spark

in that failing light we were pulling at the seams

yeah it seemed to me

we were living in a dream

we were living in a ... dream
