CAN’T CATCH THE NIGHT

Don’t slow down

City lights are passing me

Like a blurred-out memory

Every step I try to take

Feels like one more small mistake

I was always half too late

To rewrite or recreate

Every word I didn’t say

Still won’t go away

Running faster, losing time

Every truth I left behind

If I stop I disappear

So I keep you somewhere near

I can’t catch the night

Even when I try

Every star I chase

Fades before my eyes

Can’t catch the night

But I’m still alive

If I lose the light

I’ll just run inside

Hold me in the dark

Don’t let it end

I can’t catch the night

But I feel your light

Every step I take

Brings me back to life
