lyrics

I like night time better than the day
let's drink green tea
and fall for things in the worst way
let's stay up all night

meet me in the shop
we can write it down
on a piece of lucy's handmade paper
we'll be writing your name and mine your name and mine

let's go out into the yard
and drink red wine
and do things you do when you know you're gonna live a while
let's put on slim slow slider and tennessee

meet me in the shop
we can write it down
on a piece of lucy's handmade paper
we'll be writing your name and mine your name and mine

someday soon we'll have a better view
late at night we'll see a tree or two
oh remember new year's last year there's not much more to lose
oh look ahead my love it's gold not black and blue

meet me in the shop we can write it down
on a piece of lucy's handmade paper
by the tribune lights and the howden too
and the white from all the nearby windows
the bellevue-staten stands by the lake
waits by the lake
tomorrow tomorrow
tomorrow
when there is a sky
not to visit you
not to visit me
we'll be writing your name and mine your name and mine
