At Night in Dreams - White Denim

Yesterday was an accident

On the street that they held hands

They were looking for their hearts

They were there from the start

Just a little too young then to understand

What it’s easy to advance isn’t always made to last

Here we are

Caught shoveling past the ambivalent somewhere

Considered bring her half

And he’s trying not to laugh

When they can see

The rivers blur if humanity tempers with the quiet

And all the time they spent

Let them chew another end again and again

At night in dreams a thousand moons and clear blue rain

Sometimes it seems as if we could build a love that’ll free us from pain

I know you think that it’s easy to change but it’s a symptom of age

Boy tread up to 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

We’re lying in the grass on an evening such a task

Or maybe we’re just a little too cool not to understand

Where reason finds its end, where an open heart begins

To love again

We don’t move on, when we don’t have to We can go, we understand

More life, more vision

People seeing what they can
