Well, the moon I know and the town I live Steady as she waits Seems as though she yearns for me Calls me by my name
Sometimes she says \"Come home to me\" \"Kiss me while it's late\" And other nights she's just hangin' With the stars
And I've seen her waiting from all her mistakes and What if he never comes when you call?
And ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"It's all right\" she says Once upon a time I lived the perfect night Ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"End of the night\" she says In a dream of mine from 1,000 years ago
\"Don't look back,\" I heard her voice, and know that I couldn't see The pictures then were black and white and the details were in between I heard about a woman once who did everything ever asked of her She died last week and her last words were, 'It wasn't worth it'
And I've seen her patience through all her mistakes and Whoooo's gonna save you now?
Ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"It's all right\" she says Once upon a time I lived the perfect night Ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"End of the night\" she says In a dream of mine from 1,000 years ago
Ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"It's all right\" she says Once upon a time I lived the perfect night Ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"End of the night\" she says In a dream of mine from 1,000 years ago
Ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"It's all right\" she says Ay-ee-ay, ay-ee-ay, \"End of the night\" she says
Way back when we became friends I was you, you were my defense And quiet was the night
Show me that bridge and it brought you home You told me about it and I never let it go And I guess I might've been doing the same, anyhow
