Just before the dawn x4
it could have been the one with the curly hair
looking in the window of the shoe store
I was standing only a matter of feet away from there
A large pane of glass was between us- a typical story
I craved sneakers, you wanted more
one hell of a clash between passion and glory
The fires cool, we start to think of think of what’s been going on
We sometimes realize too late the direction we’ve been drawn
Just before the dawn x4
Neither of us intended to bring the matter to a vote
No one was interested in putting up a fight
The fare had been collected, transfer in the pocket of your coat
The sound that I heard - was it us or was it thunder?
The dark has been disturbed more than once tonight
As the sky began to brighten, I began to wonder
the fires cool...
just before the dawn x4
