All Those Pretty Lights

The wind blows through your hair
As you're walking people stare
Up the block and down the street
To north kings highway

And there's a beating in my chest
And it's seeming to suggest
That before this day is through it might go my way

So I sit back in my seat
Scribble down something that's sweet
About a boy, a girl and endless stretch of scenery

Cause it's like falling to your knees
Before a stranger on the street
I did it just the other day
You should have seen me

Oh and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

There's something to be said
About the colors in your head
And how they mix to form
The perfect shade of sadness
Not because of things I've done
Or any of the songs I've sung
It's just the story of our lives
We wish we had this

Oh and I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

And I remember we stayed up way past you're bedtime
Up on the second floor, down by my sliding door
Just innocent kids in a victimless crime
Trapped in a metaphor hoping for something more

I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights

And I wanna remember this night
And how my words never came out right
It's just my patience that keeps me alive
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky

In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
In the sky
Just like all those pretty lights
Just like all the pretty lights in the sky
