Damien Rice - What This Night Is For Lyrics

She's got a place within the woods
Where she swings near the house in the trees
She's got a way with animals
And invites me along to get free

There's an army of men who'd shoot for her
Even goddesses watch when she moves
Her friends get us high and something opens up the sky
And fills us with nothing to lose

Oh and we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now we'll just sit around

He's got a way of lingering
Like a ghost that just won't go away
He's got a place within the wind
He's around but I know he won't stay

There's an army of stars that crash the night
They were burning but still it was cold
So we dared the gods to come and sit and talk with us
We were bruised, we were stilled, we were bold

Oh and we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this night is for
So for now we'll just sit around
Yeah, for now we'll just sit around

Oh 'cause we've never been in this place before
No, not as it is right now, right now
And we may never know what this life and love, and living is for
So for now, we'll just sit around
Yeah, for now we'll just sit around
