Today And a Lonely Night letra

For six weeks straight
I've been staying up too late
Looked on the pieces page by page
Nothing learned, nothing gained

There's been nowhere to go
Threats on the city and the bridges are closed
Yesterday fell a full foot of snow
Sleep-black sky and a bright white glow

But I've been thinking of going west
Just to climb up as high as I can get
Press my soles to paths great men set and
Push me out over the edge

'Cause I know inside
I'll find my way back to the city tonight
Feel the ground shake as the train goes by
Not a star in the sky

My baby she just called and said
The midtown tunnel's opened
So let's ride
And I said: Darling, I just don't feel much
Like going to brooklyn tonight

I should try to breathe
Lay me down and try to sleep
Count each time my heart skips a beat
Not a light in the house but what comes from the street
