darkness 'til dawn

chain smoking cigarettes, enemies across the table, wonderin' if i can ever trust anyone again, we argue through the night, the restaurant shuts, you catch your flight, i hail a cab with no idea where home might be, we both believed my chance was gone, but ain't it strange how life goes on, a storm can never rage forever, and darkness only lasts 'til dawn, hotel blinds stay down, nothing seems to make me care, i can't find a reason to comb my hair, folks walkin' in the street, everyone has something to do, my brain won't stop showin' those old movies of you, weeks pass, and your voice sounds strange on the telephone, strange how smooth and casual my own voice sounds, i find that i'm listening to, a tuen coming over my radio, it makes me think of a guy i knew a while ago, a while ago a while ago
