"Streetlights" lyrics

"Streetlights"

The streetlights are rising up
It's time we're headed home
Long before the days
When I'd stay out late and roam
But I wanna stay at your house tonight
I don't ever wanna go home
That's where the nightmares happen
And I feel so all alone

So say your prayers and make your peace
It's time to buckle up
Will you share with me some courage?
Will you share with me some love?

Now shave your face all nice and clean
And fix your tie just right
No church, no bar, and no museum
Will ever make this right
As we kneel before the statue
Virgin Mary, lift me up
We'll say your name ten times
But it just won't be enough
It's never enough
It's never enough
We'll say your name ten times
But it just won't be enough
It's never enough
It's never enough

A phone drops and a face falls
A heart breaks and time stalls
A grandma wraps her arms around a little boy

So say your prayers and make your peace
It's time to buckle up
Will you share with me some courage?
Will you share with me some love?

Now shave your face all nice and clean
And fix your tie just right
No church, no bar, and no museum
Will ever make this right
As we kneel before the statue
Virgin Mary, lift me up
We'll say your name ten times
But it just won't be enough
It's never enough
It's never enough
We'll say your name ten times
But it just won't be enough
It's never enough
It's never enough

Now shave your face all nice and clean
And fix your tie just right
No church, no bar, and no museum
Will ever make this right
As we kneel before the statue
Virgin Mary, lift me up
We'll say your name ten times
But it just won't be enough
As we kneel before the statue
Virgin Mary, lift me up
We'll say your name ten times
And it just won't be enough
It's never enough
