About

“This song tells the story of a night out in Melbourne. While the song reflects the events of one night, the idea is that it embodies most good nights out. Writing the lyrics to this song was a really different experience than to every other song we [The Bennies] have. I wrote the lyrics without any...

Knights Forever Lyrics

It all started about 20 past 4 in the afternoon
The sun was high in the sky and so was I
I had my speakers on and Toots was telling me that it is you
[Ah yeah yeah]
I invite my friends round to have a drink
And before too long we were dancing
As the sun set somewhere over in Collingwood
With a can in each hand we went out into the night
Into those ever-familiar Melbourne city lights

Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?

Now the clock strikes 10 past 10
It seems like a good a reasons as any do go and do some shots
But all we really wanted to do was to smoke some pot
So we made our way through the beer garden
Through the haze of conversation and tobacco smoke
To find ourselves underneath the tree
To smoke a little Sensi-Mi
And now onto the dancefloor looking for much much more
As Mike Skinner sings the line from Weak Become Heroes

Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?

Now it reaches that point in the night
Where it ain't no longer a point in the night
People have started dropping off like flies
The only ones left, they got too high, hey?

So we walk out of the bar shielding our eyes
And avoiding the gaze of those who have started their day
We make our way far too tired to talk
So we spark up a joint to ease the thought of having to sleep

These moments get lost cos our memory's been a blur
Like a sense and feeling it will go on forever
These nights are not rare and that is not why we care
We are who we are and that is more than enough

Cos people around me make me feel alive
And I've got a feeling that I'll never die
Cos people around me make me feel alive
And I've got a feeling that I'll never die

Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?

Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
Don’t you wish these nights go on forever?
