Play It Safe - Streetlights Lyrics

I see the colour in your eyes
The greenish undertone that makes me wonder why
I noticed in the first place
All my answers are wrong
The same old story that I've told myself
Time and time again

I wonder why it comes back slowly
I made a point to burn the pictures
That we took in the stairwell
New Year's Eve and drunk as hell
The flame just can't destroy whatever's left

Small Town streetlights
Burn away the cold but then
That means I can't see stars
And I never got an answer why
When daybreak comes
The light inside you fades
Night owl, nowhere clear as day

And I know that I'll be fine
Will you still think of me
When you listen to 1979
The mixtape that I made
Cracked and broken to this day
Sits in my radio but still un-played

I wonder why I just can't shake this
I did my best to forget
Red night lights and vinyl dances
The way that you take all your chances
Leaving me with whatever is left

Small Town streetlights
Burn away the cold but then
That means I can't see stars
And I never got an answer why
When daybreak comes
The light inside you fades
Night owl, nowhere clear as day

Small town streetlights...

Small Town streetlights
Burn away the cold but then
That means I can't see stars
And I never got an answer why
When daybreak comes
The light inside you fades
Night owl, nowhere clear as day

Small Town streetlights
Burn away the cold but then
That means I can't see stars
And I never got an answer why
When daybreak comes
The light inside you fades
Night owl, nowhere clear as day
