Concrete Over Water

I live in the city
The tower's blue and the sky is black
I feel the night, I sit, it's on my back
On my back

It makes me cry
This European air, I swear it does
And randomly, I'm grateful for
Grateful for a night
Solemn night walker
Two hour telephone talker
It's you
Maybe, it's you

Oh, a night on what bridge we stood
Concrete over water
I think you remind me of the night
But also of the day
I think of Italy, champagne
I think of Spain

Ah, I wanna be there
Oh, I'm over my head
Should've meant it when I said
Now I'm over my head

I'm glad you take me as I am
Whatever shape with woman, man
Black or blue, a filthy cheat I am
And you still come to see the band

Light and dark at once
Never lonely in holy matrimony
So dazzlingly dark because of its bright
And truth is God and God is light
The space behind the sky
On which the darkness depends on
In the creation of light

Oh, a night on what bridge we stood
Concrete over water
I think you remind me of the night
But also of the day
I think of Italy, champagne
I think of Spain

Oh I wanna be there
Two sides of the moon
Black spots on the sun
