The night s on the edge now
Hanging low against the tide
The world is at it's best now
When the loveless ones collide
It's a long night
A beautiful night
And we're the first leftovers of the night
I'm thinking 'bout the last times
And the people I had to hurt
I wonder why they couldn't touch
And why I never gave it up
You weren't hard to find
You didn't run and hide
We were the first leftovers of the night
Hide of the night
The silence is a burden
When you don't really want to talk
I'm trying really hard now
To set alight my sleepy heart
We made a pretty sight
It seems we've found some pride
In being the first leftovers of the night
Hide of the night, i-ight
And everything is alright now
Everything is alright now
Everything is alright
You're not what I was after
But I'm happy with what I found
To dream of new beginnings
When the end is all around
I think you're alright
You qualify
For being my supernova
It's a gambling life
A lonely strife
But I think we're the best leftovers of the night
Hide of the night, hi-hide
And everything is alright now
Oh everything is alright now
Everything is alright
