When Daylight Goes To Town

(album: You Are Here - 2004)

I remember you when you was me
Oh, what a beautiful sight
You'd cool it up or you could cool it down
From some dizzy, dizzy height

I can still hear that rolling sound
Like a diesel in my head
Sometimes I wake and I think of you now
Forgetting that you're dead

I was born on a rolling train
Running when I hit the ground
I watch these wheels turning now
Now there's nothing here, nothing left
But I'm watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight go to town
Watching the daylight go to town

Yeah, this hotel rooms like the wild, wild west
And there's strangers moving underground
I still have your photograph
Picks me up when I'm feeling down

Pull up a chair and you pour me one
Let's kick back and let it roll
There's nothing here and there's nothing left
But I'm watching the daylight go to town

We'd get swept up on a pillow fight
You just couldn't let it go, no
I watch these wheels turning now
And there's nothing here, nothing left
But I'm watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight go to town
Watching the daylight go to town

Don't you fade away

Well, I guess I'm walking right back home
Got to set this all down
Pull up a chair and you pour me two
'Cause there's nothing here, nothing left
But watch the daylight turn around
Watching the daylight go to town
Watching the daylight go to town
Watching this world spin around
Watching the daylight go to town
But I'm watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight fade away
Watching the daylight go to town
Watching the daylight go to town
