lyrics

Tuesday night in June
The introverts were out despite the rain
Hired for the entertainment
We were playing to ourselves

They sit with joysticks in their hands
Loud enough to beat the band

We pack up and load out
Another one to give me doubts
Word goes round the band
Of a house that's celebrating through the damp

A stones throw away, these people dance
And you're looking good but feeling bad

Well the night is young and far from over
You could chuck the car in second gear
To a room full of perfect strangers

Upside down, I saw you
On your hands you swept me off my feet
It felt like there was no one else
In a crowd, just you and me
With skin so pale and eyes so deep
They're brightly lit with dopamine
They night would carry on
But when it ends, where will we be
Cos I could see me happy with you

And when the music dies its time to call the cabs
Like Lester Burnham in a trance
This lonely sailor's just hit land
Hold out your hand for me to grab

We know this night is almost over
The rush of blood has made it clear
And if you call me up, you know I'll answer
