Lyrics

[Intro] Gravity takes the night off Tell the train we won't be long [Verse 1] Last train sighs at a quarter to two My heel lifts up and the pavement moves Loose change spins like a constellation Over the steps of the underground station You reach out from the other side Laughing as the traffic starts to rise We catch the green, but we don't cross We take one step and the street drops off [Pre-Chorus] Nothing underneath my shoes Nothing left for us to prove Take my hand, don't count us down Let the whole sky turn around [Chorus] Gravity takes the night off We're dancing where the wires run All of the windows light up Like somebody switched on the sun Don't pull me back to the sidewalk Don't tell me where we belong Gravity takes the night off Tell the ground we won't be long [Build] Up past the signs Out of the lines Your hand in mine One more time [Verse 2] Somebody's coat on a satellite dish Two paper cups doing backflips A taxi driver waves from below His radio's the only road we know We spin above the corner store No velvet rope, no crowded door Your silver earrings catch the moon The whole block sings a little out of tune [Pre-Chorus] Nothing underneath my shoes Nothing left for us to prove Take my hand, don't count us down Let the whole sky turn around [Chorus] Gravity takes the night off We're dancing where the wires run All of the windows light up Like somebody switched on the sun Don't pull me back to the sidewalk Don't tell me where we belong Gravity takes the night off Tell the ground we won't be long [Bridge] When morning puts the buildings back And every train returns to track Will you find me at that station stair? I'll have a little sky still in my hair We don't have to stay up here To keep the feeling when we land If the world gets heavy, dear Put your hand back in my hand [Final Build] Up past the signs Out of the lines Your hand in mine One more time [Final Chorus] Gravity takes the night off We're dancing where the wires run All of the windows light up Like somebody switched on the sun Don't pull me back to the sidewalk Don't tell me where we belong Gravity takes the night off Tell the ground we won't be long
