Lyrics

Midnight On the Hill

A floodlit tennis court, we play
Nocturnal sport and wear
Our skew-whiff smiles, we wear our skew-whiff smiles

A floodlit tennis court, we play
Nocturnal sport and wear
Our skew-whiff smiles, we wear our skew-whiff smiles

A designated drive a vehicle alive
Voices quick and shrill
I tell my secrets to a perfect stranger
It was midnight on the hill
A sudden silence, too much information
We were struggling with our will
What happened next? I would like to know
Funny how the moments come and go

The forest opens up
We fill another cup
We feel our senses slide
The bubbles up your nose, spill on your summer clothes
You grab a guiding hand
The bubbles up your nose, spill on your summer clothes
You grab a guiding hand

What happened next? I would like to know
Funny how the moments come and go
What happened next? I would like to know

The smell of sunscreen smeared on the front seat
You in your bare feet, tapping on the glove box
It was an empty dream, this is how the summer ends

A bead of sweat drops down
You're misting up my mind (What'll I do?)
It's getting so confined (You're turning the screw)
You're misting up my mind (What'll I do?)
It's getting so confined
Turning the screw
You're misting up my mind
What'll I do?
It's getting so confined
Turning the screw
You're misting up my mind
What'll I do?

Capitulating, all night long
Capitulating, you're not that strong

What happened next? I would like to know
Funny how the moments come and go
Midnight, midnight, midnight
(What happened next?)
(What happened next?)
(What happened next?)
(What happened next?)
