Suzanne Vega
Night Vision
[Verse 1]
By day give thanks
By night beware
Half the world in sweetness
The other in fear

[Verse 2]
When the darkness takes you
With her hand across your face
Don't give in too quickly
Find the thing she's erased

[Chorus]
Find the line
Find the shape through the grain
Find the outline
And things will tell you their name

[Verse 3]
The table, the guitar
The empty glass
All will blend together
When the daylight has passed

[Chorus]
Find the line
Find the shape through the grain
Find the outline
And things will tell you their name
[Bridge]
Now I watch you falling into sleep
Watch your fist uncurl against the sheet
Watch your lips fall open and your eyes dim
In blind faith

[Verse 4]
I would shelter you
And keep you in light
But I can only teach you
Night vision
Night vision
Night vision
