"On A Slow Night" lyrics
"On A Slow Night"
True beautiful one
What have you gone and done?
I can see all your moves are new
Tell me, what did that salesman do to you?
That catalogue replaced
The fine mind behind your face
No human trio can compete
When that three-way mirror meets your eye
On a slow night
On a slow night
How you would walk the fashion mile
Hand-me-down and call it style
Well, your boots were scratchy black
And your hat was just a hat
Yeah, though lips on you were plain
The better to a kiss sustain
On a slow night
On a slow night

Phantogram - "Black Out Days" Hide the sun
I will leave your face out of my mind
You should save your eyes
A thousand voices howling in my head
Speak in tongues
I don't even recognize your face
Mirror on the wall
Tell me all the...
Santigold - "Chasing Shadows" 360, 5 left, I'm counting it to the day
I'm thinking if I did everything I said, or if the year got the best of me
One thing about time, it waits for nobody, you told me, isn't that what they say...
