what the night is for

Damien Rice

Sheââ?¬â?¢s got a place within the woods
Where she swings near the house in the trees
Sheââ?¬â?¢s got a way with animals
And invites me along to get free
Thereââ?¬â?¢s an army of men whoââ?¬â?¢d shoot for her
Even goddesses watch when she moves
Friends get us high and something opens up the sky
And it fills us with nothing to lose

Oh and weââ?¬â?¢ve never been in this place before
Not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now, weââ?¬â?¢ll just sit around

Heââ?¬â?¢s got a way of lingering
Like a ghost that just wonââ?¬â?¢t go away
Heââ?¬â?¢s got a place within the wind
Oh heââ?¬â?¢s around, but I know that he wonââ?¬â?¢t stay
Thereââ?¬â?¢s an army of stars that'd crash the night
They were burnin' but still it was cold
So we dare the Gods to come and sit and talk with us
We were bruised, we were stilled, we were bold

Oh and weââ?¬â?¢ve never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now, weââ?¬â?¢ll all just sit around
Yeah, for now, we'll just sit around

Cos weââ?¬â?¢ve never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this life and long living is for
So for now weââ?¬â?¢ll jump.
