Through the Night

There ain't no moon to

guide a tide, nothing my

flow can't ride.

It'll be fine if you call me

beautiful just once more or

even if you just said hello,

before it's time to go.

The sun will still

burn hydrogen and

I'll get through the night. 

I can't leave until the sun

is up and the beer is gone.

I puffed all my smoke,

you always have one more

with another tune or two

because we speak through

all of those songs to seize

our few moments together.
