Long Hot Night (Halfway to Certain) - The Growlers

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
