album: MINE AND YOURS (Japanese version only)
single: COMFORT

"I always really liked this song, I just think we couldn't sequence it right. It felt like wherever it fell in the record, it just kind of messed the rest of it up. That's a rather unfortunate consequence of thinking about an entire album as opposed to individual songs - since I usually tend to think in terms of entire albums. Some songs that are totally fine just get tossed because there's nowhere to put them, it's like having too many shoes."

slow night, a big town
no one but august and i
front door, i walk down
will you remember to write something
soft and reluctant
then dance in circles unwound

it's a slow night in a city of light
ooh...
it's a slow night in a city of light
ooh...

life is elsewhere
sentiment bitter but true
cracks in the pavement
people are passing but you blushing
beyond the skyline
pink like a sunset for me

oh it's a slow night in a city of light
ooh...
it's a slow night in a city of light
ooh...
