Lyrics

Daylight

You drove to knock me
Leave me in daylight
The knife in my heart
All I was wanting was something different
Not the cold steel in your hand
But we lost
All that love there tonight

You looked so lovely
Standing in driveway
With your eyes flickering in the wind
I was just smiling, laughing at nothing
But that moment we were the same
But we lost
All that love there tonight

When you rang me
Told me I'm special
And I waited all the next day
'Cuz you went missing into the nighttime
And I knew that was it forever
But we lost
All that love there tonight
