For the night to last

Wild Whens · Tekst og musikk: Esben Meyer Kristensen

The greetings of the sparrows at the first light As I’m clingin’ on to the night I’m pretending that tomorrow ain’t here yet As I’m failing once again to reset

Oh my oh my for how long have I been looking through the vulture’s eye? And seen me lying there with that hollow stare Just livin’ by the hourglass Just hopin’ for the the night to last

There’s a ragin’ fire right below this wire I’ve been walkin’on for way too long And there’s a fadin’ smile in the face of denial As I’m failing once again to move on

Oh my oh my for how long have I been looking through the vulture’s eye? And seen me lying there with that hollow stare Just livin’ by the hourglass Just hopin’ for the the night to last

My eyes are gettin’ heavy, almost outta here But there’s a whisper in my ear; “Hey wake up”

Oh my oh my for how long have I been looking through the vulture’s eye? And seen me lying there with that hollow stare Just livin’ by the hourglass Just hopin’ for the the night to last

Oh my oh my for how long have I been looking through the vulture’s eye? And seen me lying there with that hollow stare Just livin’ by the hourglass

Oh my oh my for how long have I been looking through the vulture’s eye? And seen me lying there with that hollow stare Just livin’ by the hourglass Just hopin’ for the the night to last!

For the night to last! Yeah! Oh my my oh my! Hey! Hey!

Oh my oh my for how long have I been looking through the vulture’s eye? And seen me lying there with that hollow stare Just livin’ by the hourglass Just hopin’ for the the night to last
