You live by night
And waste the day
You give yourself

You give yourself away

I know that when you started

You liked the way you felt
And yes I understand you
But to everybody else...


It's black and white
To you it's grey

You know I'll love you anyway

But it seems to me you're living on the run

But I hope you know you're not the only one

Who lives by night

Lives by night
They're only trying to chase away the sun


And when you play
The way you do
The sun don't shine

The same way for you

And you say you don't abuse it

But baby I can tell
We both know what the truth is
But to everybody else...


It's black and white
It's night and day

You know I'll love you anyway

But it seems to me you're living on the run

And now you know you're not the only one...

Who lives by night

Lives by night
We're only trying to chase away the sun


We, we were so intimate
You, you were so into it
But they, they pulled you in


And now that they're gone
We're only trying to work out what went wrong


You live by night
Live by night

But you're only trying to chase away the sun
