Cover Up
[Intro]
There's lights that line these halls
That beckon us to stay
A glimmer in the distance
That gathers all the stray
And when I need it most
It breaks into a song
That runs through all my veins
And helps me to hold on
[Verse 1]
It was a long night
We ran along into the spotlight
You sang a song that made the children cry
And all the people knew my name
It was a bright light
These lands combine into a great big mass
We sang along to the very last
Oh, the jury stole my fame
[Pre-Chorus]
And then we grabbed the sun
And it shined into these eyes
Believe me
[Chorus]
Cover up, rain down
We wept on the edge of this town
It's all I want, it's all we want tonight
I feel it
Cover up, rain down
We wept on the edge of this town
It's all I want, it's all we want tonight
[Verse 2]
Oh, you look so alive
D-d-d-did you think that we'd cry tonight?
Oh, did you think we'd cry?
Oh, can you feel my heart?
I think I feel it, too
D-d-d-did you think that we'd die tonight?
Oh, did you think we'd die?
[Pre-Chorus]
And then we grabbed the sun
And it shined into these eyes
Believe me
[Chorus]
Cover up, rain down
We wept on the edge of this town
It's all I want, it's all we want tonight
I feel it
Cover up, rain down
We wept on the edge of this town
It's all I want, it's all we want tonight
[Bridge]
Take my love, take it to the valley where the golden dove
Flies into the places where the silence screams
Fills it with the noises of our cluttered dreams, oh
[Chorus]
Cover up, rain down
We wept on the edge of this town
It's all I want, it's all we want tonight
I feel it
Cover up, rain down
We wept on the edge of this town
It's all I want, it's all we want tonight
