At Night in Dreams by White Denim Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yesterday there was an accident on the street where they held hands
They were looking for their hearts
They were there from the start, or maybe we
Just a little too young then to understand
What's easy to advance
Isn't always made to last, uh, here we are
A card shufflin' past
Ambivalence somewhere
Considering her half
And he's trying not to laugh when they can see
The reckless blood of humanity tempers the quiet
And all the time they spent
Has led 'em to another end again, again
[Chorus]
At night in dreams
Of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
Sometimes it seems
As if we could build a love to free us from pain
I know you think
That it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age
[Verse 2]
Portrait of two in white in a church house made of glass
Play an imaginary part
And they knew it from the start, now here we are
Barely holding on to a promise of forever
Made lying in the grass
Oh, it isn't such a task, or maybe we
Just a little too cool not to understand
When reason finds its end
Where an open heart begins to love again
[Chorus]
At night in dreams
Of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
Sometimes it seems
As if we could build a love to free us from pain
I know you think
That it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age
At night in dreams
Of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
Sometimes it seems
As if we could build a love to free us from pain
I know you think
That it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age
[Bridge]
We don't move on when we don't have to
People go, we understand
More life, more vision
More people seeing what they can
[Chorus]
At night in dreams
Of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
Sometimes it seems
As if we could build a love to free us from pain
I know you think
That it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age
Yesterday there was an accident on the street where they held hands
They were looking for their hearts
They were there from the start, or maybe we
Just a little too young then to understand
What's easy to advance
Isn't always made to last, uh, here we are
A card shufflin' past
Ambivalence somewhere
Considering her half
And he's trying not to laugh when they can see
The reckless blood of humanity tempers the quiet
And all the time they spent
Has led 'em to another end again, again
[Chorus]
At night in dreams
Of a thousand moons and clear blue rain
Sometimes it seems
As if we could build a love to free us from pain
I know you think
That it's easy to change but it's a symptom of age
