Some Evenings Are For Dancing by The Weather Machine Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2015

When I checked back in I was a fool and I was kissing underneath a storm of birds
They would fly right at us and then swerve
As if trying to act out words

She called it a bad omen after I had named it lucky
We began to drift from there
And that used to be a secret kept with care
'til I started writing songs

Once that one had ended I was sad but empathetic
And it rolled around my head
Like a cartoon chase that never ends
And no one gets to catch the mouse

Sing restless, restless spring
I'm in love with too many things
You'll have to find me a bigger heart, a bigger heart

When I looked back up, I was standing at the border with the sea air in my face
Straining for horizons far away
As it was dark as any night
And with the cool wind blowing inland
Swear I heard the water talking, say infinity is fine
Long's you let the rest of it be mine
Between a rattle and a sigh

Though the party always beckons, there's a bonfire for woman
There's a flicker in her eye
If I could only find the words to fit just right
To make that flower bloom

Though some evenings are for dancing and others blowing candles
Wish I knew which was which kind
Wish I knew which was which kind
I wish I knew

When I checked back in I was a fool and I was kissing underneath a storm of birds
But it became the city on the run
It had changed before my eyes

And sometimes it gets quiet
The kind you can't wish away
And I'm convinced it'd be the death of me
The death of me someday

When I checked back in I was a fool and I was kissing underneath a storm of birds
