Ludo - Streetlights

When the streetlights,
Come on the pooling night,
Is levied aside,
And pressed in twilight,
Against our two rooms,
I'll see you tonight.

The pavement is aching.
Cicadas are crying.
The wine-colored air,
Breathing thoughts through your hair,
Breezing to me, leading me there.

I come alive as the shadows parade.
My hot summer blood,
Comes and floods and in waves.
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid,
Of what you'll say.

And I find you,
Twilit beyond all the cars.
The driveways they sleep,
But streetlights will keep,
Watch over me.
They flicker like stars.

And now the secrets,
Carefully kept inside,
Run the streets red,
Our chemicals spread,
Washing us through,
Making you mine.

I come alive as the shadows parade.
My hot summer blood,
Comes and floods and in waves.
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid,
Of what you'll say.

Now there are no words,
Only the glow in our wires.
And so we will be,
You turn slow to me,
Our lips at the sun,
The hills are on fire.

Oh... I come alive as the shadows parade.
My hot summer blood,
Comes and floods and in waves.
Curbside confessions, no longer afraid,
Of what you'll say.
Of what you'll say.
