Swallowed by the Night by The Floating Men Lyrics
She seems so tangled and wild
Me? Am I too wide-eyed and mild?
She might not think so
I've been around you know
She sets the smoke overhead all aglow with the lights in her eyes
She parts the underground sea
And weaves through the elbows and knees
She might be solo
I'm too shy to ever know
Please, I can't breathe with her inches away from me ordering wine
And she might be lazy
She might be the kind to sleep in a coffin all day
But if I'm so crazy
How come she makes tomorrow seem so far away?
Wake me up
I think I'm falling falling falling
I give up
I think I'm falling falling falling
If I'm not crawling home by morning
I was swallowed by the night
Swallowed by the night
She's damp from dancing alone
Please, have I been down here too long?
She might be lonely
She might just need room to breathe
She faintly smells of patchouli and leather and sweat and I'm losing my mind
And she might be lazy
She might be the kind to sleep in a coffin all day
But if I'm so crazy
How come she makes tomorrow seem so far away?
Wake me up
I think I'm falling falling falling
I give up
I think I'm falling falling falling
If I'm not crawling home by morning
I was swallowed by the night
Swallowed by the night
Wake me up
I think I'm falling falling falling
I give up
I think I'm falling falling falling
If I'm not crawling home by morning
I was swallowed by the night
Swallowed by the night
Me? Am I too wide-eyed and mild?
She might not think so
I've been around you know
She sets the smoke overhead all aglow with the lights in her eyes
She parts the underground sea
And weaves through the elbows and knees
She might be solo
I'm too shy to ever know
Please, I can't breathe with her inches away from me ordering wine
And she might be lazy
She might be the kind to sleep in a coffin all day
But if I'm so crazy
How come she makes tomorrow seem so far away?
Wake me up
I think I'm falling falling falling
I give up
I think I'm falling falling falling
If I'm not crawling home by morning
I was swallowed by the night
Swallowed by the night
She's damp from dancing alone
Please, have I been down here too long?
She might be lonely
She might just need room to breathe
She faintly smells of patchouli and leather and sweat and I'm losing my mind
And she might be lazy
She might be the kind to sleep in a coffin all day
But if I'm so crazy
How come she makes tomorrow seem so far away?
Wake me up
I think I'm falling falling falling
I give up
I think I'm falling falling falling
If I'm not crawling home by morning
I was swallowed by the night
Swallowed by the night
Wake me up
I think I'm falling falling falling
I give up
I think I'm falling falling falling
If I'm not crawling home by morning
I was swallowed by the night
Swallowed by the night
