The Cat Empire – Steal The Light lyrics

[Verse:]
Seen that muse, I won’t be scared,
She’s wearing flowers, not snakes up in her hair tonight.
In love we’ve been around before,
We washed up on the old shore, but it’s new tonight.

[Chorus:]
It’s only light, she said,
But we are liars to be free.
We steal the light to see.

[Verse:]
The hour falls, we fall to dance,
The sirens and the marching band sing, it’s nothing but chance tonight.
A billion ones and many few,
When everyone I never knew, they’re here tonight.

[Chorus:]
It’s only light, we said,
But we are liars to be free.
We steal the light to see.

[Bridge:]
What if I’m lonely?
What if the sky should fall and disappear?
For one night only
Open your eyes and run to be free.
So if I may, what if I say it’s good to have you here?

[Verse:]
She said if you lead I’ll come along
And if you need me there I’ll sing a song tonight.
And all that glows and all that shines
And all we leave behind will keep us warm tonight.

[Chorus:]
It’s only light, I said,
But we are liars to be free.
We steal the light to see.

[Bridge:]
What if I’m lonely?
What if the sky should fall and disappear?
For one night only
Open your eyes and run to be free.
I love you only,
Until the skies fall down and disappear
So if I may, what if I say it’s good to have you here?
