Ten Year Night by The Alice Band Lyrics

There is no else around the road is quiet the only sound is wind that
Sounds Like cars that sound like breathing
The desert air is high and dry two lanes weaving earth and sky
The stars are all that's keeping till morning
And I turn and look beside me and your sleeping like a baby and
You haven't heard a word that I've been saying

And the way you look tonight fast asleep in the dashboard light
Well I can't speak that's how I feel

Open your eyes look at me look at me, look at me
Open your eyes and look at me
'Cos I have and hold this love for you
Before this ten year night is through
I'm telling you
Take it from me
Take it from me

Were ten years older I know we are than the night we met
In that downtown bar you thought I was some kind of star
That's what you said
I felt your skin felt the heat as you pulled me out into the street
And you kissed me there till I was weak 'cos I asked you too
Later on on the kitchen floor two flights above the grocery store
I felt things I Never felt before and I still do
Open your eyes look at me look at me, look at me
Open your eyes and look at me
'Cos I have all this love for you before this ten year night is through
I'm telling you
Take it from me
Take it from me

Going eighty on the highway were all rushing somewhere
But the way I feel tonight it's like I'm already there

Open your eyes look at me look at me, look at me
Open your eyes and look at me
'Cos I have all this love for you before this ten year night is through
I'm telling you
Take it from me
Take it from me
Take it from me
Take it from me
