September Nights

The train leaves in an hour, There’s just enough time for one last goodbye, I sit with you’re memory under the streetlights I feel so confident, so tired, so missing something, so everyone in one I have no reason to step away from these people Feel so tired, so inspired, got to learn to stay inside myself I drink myself into somebody else who I don’t know and I can’t control Slowly getting used to it Where were you when I needed you most You were hiding inside can you hear me my friend Wait for the smoke to clear and listen to how stupid I sound, I know I should go home with you But I think I should stay, because it’s a change from the wait From the days of waiting for the world to come to me with an invitation Well who are you? Someone worth talking to? To save me from something I’m not sure I can cope with Because your best friend has a life to lead and your boyfriend has a love to leave It came from nowhere and the cold began to fade As the evening glows on she never stopped listening, He never stopped asking if I was alright Well you are beautiful people I wish I could be like I wish I could be with for the rest of my life Talk me through these September nights When you look at me like no one else could I remember what happiness feels like and lonely I would be Without one person in the world Who looks into a crowd of people and finds me
