Long Hot Night (Halfway to Certain)

A long hot night
Town half asleep
And I was a beast
And I could see
Underneath your mask
You were beautiful

Standing on dust
Looking at lights
Are they fiercely glowing?
Took our turn
Out of a dead end
Without fully knowing

Could you see me then
Under a curtain
Of a half smile
I was halfway to certain
Could I really know then like I know now

That you'd love me
Through a million doubts
That I'd catch you
Before you slipped into the crowd

The ghosts were free
They left us alone
Made the night our own
Drowning words
With laughter they'd scream
That it wasn't a dream

We blew her scars
Like a heartbeat
So softly, sail
Full of love
With no signs
Of ever giving up

Could you see me then
Under a curtain
Of a half smile
I was halfway to certain
Could I really know then like I know now

That you'd love me
Through a million doubts
That I'd catch you
Before you slipped into the crowd

Could you see me then
Under a curtain
Of a half smile
I was halfway to certain
Could I really know then like I know now

Could you see me then
Under a curtain
Of a half smile
I was halfway to certain
Could I really know then like I know now
