you fall soft on my windsheid in the twilight time
alone, I, drift thru the hint of yr eyes
the headlights dance with the highway that leads to you
and behind me yr bridges collapse with a sigh
and I know it wasnt too long baby
did you think I was a trick of the light?
stars shine in yr invisible night

we're older now and we ought to know
this is how it goes
it takes you up and leaves you burning
oh I know
here it comes again

numb it down
(they'll never feel this about you)
numb it down
(they'll never feel this about you)
oh I know

I'll sleep as soon as the sun lays down on me
and I'll wrestle with yr temporary goodbyes
and I know it wasnt too long baby
did you think I was a trick of the light?
stars shine across the american night

my eager heart will never bend
so don't you dare to pretend
that y'll someday be there for me
the dials go red on the gauge
you got yr thumb on my page
but I will soon redirect this story oh I know
here it comes again
oh I know
here it comes again

numb it down
(they'll never feel this about you)
numb it down
(they'll never feel this about you)
numb it down
(they'll never feel this about you)
numb it down
oh I know
oh I know

the future is bright and wide open tonight
