Dreams and Bones

Jim Melko & Nick Cardilino

 

It's the kind of night that wants to talk to you

The kind of night that drags you out of bed

Gets you dressed and sends you out to wander

And waits for you to try to clear your head

What it gives to you instead

 

Chorus

Dreams and bones, wishes and stones

Shadows in corners swallowing the light

Don't want to be alone

With myself tonight

 

It's the kind of night that seems to follow you

The kind of night that keeps just out of sight

Watching you from every darkened doorway

Calling out for love with ragged sighs

Just your soul to pay the price

 

Repeat chorus

 

And oh, the clouds erase the sky

Where once you saw the stars

There's only darkness left behind

And oh, that home that was your soul

Has empty jagged windows

Breathing in the cold

 

Repeat chorus
