Cover Up

Lyrics

There's lights that line these halls  
That beckon us to stay  
A glimmer in the distance  
That gathers all the stray  
And when I need it most  
It breaks into a song  
That runs through all my veins  
And helps me to hold on  
  
It was a long night  
We ran along into the spotlight  
You sang a song that made the children cry  
And all the people knew my name  
It was a bright light  
These lands combine into a great big mass  
We sang along to the very last  
Oh, the jury stole my fame  
And then we grabbed the sun  
And it shined into these eyes  
Believe me  
  
Cover up, rain down  
We wept on the edge of this town  
It's all I want it's all we want tonight  
I feel it  
Cover up, rain down  
We wept on the edge of this town  
It's all I want it's all we want tonight  
  
Oh, you look so alive  
Did you think that we'd cry tonight?  
Oh, did you think we'd cry?  
Oh, can you feel my heart?  
I think I feel it, too  
Did you think that we'd die tonight?  
Oh, did you think we'd die?  
  
And then we grabbed the sun  
And it shined into these eyes  
Believe me  
  
Cover up, rain down  
We wept on the edge of this town  
It's all I want it's all we want tonight  
I feel it  
Cover up, rain down  
We wept on the edge of this town  
It's all I want it's all we want tonight  
  
Take my love, take it to the valley where the golden dove  
Flies it to the places where the silence screams  
Fills it with the noises of our cluttered dreams  
  
Cover up, rain down  
We wept on the edge of this town  
It's all I want it's all we want tonight  
I feel it  
Cover up, rain down  
We wept on the edge of this town  
It's all I want it's all we want tonight
