GRACE POTTER AND THE NOCTURNALS
"One Short Night"

One short night with a stranger
One full moon over my head
One false move and it's over
So I always think of what we said, my baby

Strange how heavy my heart is
Strange how dark it is tonight
Strange the way this all started
I guess Im losing track of wrong and right

And as the lights go dim
I lie down with him
And as Im lying there
I can only smell your hair

Its like your across the hall
With your ear glued to the wall
And as I move to let him in I can
Feel you crawl under my skin

And I can feel you from the inside
Prowling like a devil that I try to hide
I can feel your heart beating
Closer than the poison of my pride

Caught up in a moment
I thought I feel no shame because I
Didn't have tell you lies
When the daylight came but now
Down goes that silver tear
Down goes my golden year
Down we go in a water slide
Thats made up of the tears Ive cried

And I can feel you from the inside
Prowling like a devil that I try to hide
I can feel your heart beating
Closer than the poison of my pride

I can feel you, you're touching me
I look at him but its you I see, baby
I can feel your heart beating
Closer than the poison of my pride

One short night
One short night
