Krista Detor - So Goes The Night текст песни

On a bicycle built for two bent like spoons in the bed
Pedaling through – they do what they do
She looks suspicious of his wishes while the bicycle man
Looks down at the road wondering if she knows

The couple veer right – So goes the night
So go the roses that she was expecting

We stroll on, my darling, we stroll on
And hold tight – So goes the night

Past the man dancing on the saddle
The magnificent horse with the silver bridle and half-crazy eyes
With a garland of yellow roses twining round the mad horse
As she gallops below him, her eye on the prize

The gait isn't right – So goes the night
Down goes the dancer, tumbling, tumbling

We stroll on, my darling, we stroll on
And hold tight – So goes the night

There in the park with the silhouette spiders
That fiddle like poets in fine silver lines
You're whistling something and nothing is finer
Than strolling and whistling ... here, you are mine

Out past the embankment the city is drowning in light
So goes the night

We stroll on, my darling, we stroll on...

The puppeteer in the arboretum
Yellow roses appear, but will she
See them with black button eyes?

We stroll on, my darling, we stroll on
We stroll on, my darling, we stroll on
We stroll on, my darling, we stroll on
Hold on tight
So goes the night.
