Lyrics

Moonlight finds the angels up on Broadway. People keep the city awake. The windows all are mirrors in the darkness. The streets are all like rivers and I'm the only swimmer tonight. Oh tonight.


The pennies on the sidewalk are all smiling. I must be the luckiest man alive. I kick them down the drain and now I think it's going to rain. The water makes me colder and I think I'm getting older tonight. Oh tonight.


21 years of recovering, every day is just getting over the last. Who would have ever thought that yesterday could be so far in the past? Oh tonight.


Loneliness runs rampant through the bustling crowd and the daybreak it sets us apart. But here in the night, under a different kind of light, a glimpse becomes much stronger and we see with a different kind of sight.


Running away now to the heart of the night, I'm not scared of the dark anymore. But the heart of empty streets, where this city slowly beats, it's not the heart that I'm looking for.


Moonlight sends the angels back to Broadway. The city, it keeps me awake. People all are mirrors of the darkness and the streets are all like rivers and I'm the only swimmer tonight. Oh tonight.


21 years of recovering, every day is just getting over the last. Who would have ever thought that yesterday could be so far in the past? Oh tonight.
