Encore

The people upstairs they sound like they're having a ball

And I'm in my room just trying to make sense of it all

The night is still young but the light of the moon is old

My rivers run dry and I'm flat on the floor of my boat

This is me in the night for an encore

If you come, could you please bring the light that I long for

Go ahead, you decide

Just know that I need it - yes I need it

Sometimes the look on your face says more than a book and I can't help but read it and then I repeat it all in my head

All my mistakes will turn into laughter for that's what I'm after

Some laughter to smile my troubles away and watch how they fade. Slowly they fade

This is me in the night for an encore

If you come, could you please bring the light that I long for

Go ahead, you decide

Just know that I need it - oh I need it

I'll wait for the waves to come and wash away dust on my skin

And I'll be clean again

This is me in the night for an encore

If you come, could you please bring the light that I long for

Go ahead, you decide

Just know that I need it

Yes I need it, oh I need it
