Lucy Kaplansky - Ten Year Night Lyrics
There is no one else aroundThe road is quiet, the only soundIs wind that sounds like cars that sound like breathingThe desert air is hot and dryTwo lanes weaving earth and skyThe stars are all that's keeping time till morningAnd I turn and look beside meAnd you're sleeping like a babyAnd you haven't heard a word that I've been sayingAnd the way you look tonightFast asleep in the dashboard lightWell I can't speak, and that's how I feelChorus:Open your eyes and look at me, and look at meOpen your eyes and look at me'Cause I have and hold this love for youBefore this ten year night is throughI'm telling youTake it from me, take it from meWe're ten years older I know we areThan the night we met in that downtown barYou thought I was some kind of star, that's what you saidI felt your skin, I felt the heatAs you pulled me out into the streetAnd you kissed me there till I was weak 'cause I asked you toAnd later on on your kitchen floorTwo flights above the grocery storeI felt things I never felt before, and still doChorusGoing eighty on the highwaywe're all rushing somewhereBut the way I feel tonightIt's like I"m already thereChorus
