The sun's gone down and the city's asleep
Except for the dreamers and the lovers in deep
You're chasing the stars, eyes wide with wonder
I'm sitting back, letting the night pull me under
You love the dawn, crisp and new
But I find my peace in the midnight hue
You sip on tea while I pour the bourbon
In the quiet night, everything's uncertain
You're too bright for me
You're too right for me
I take my talks late, my truth's in the breeze
You're too light for me
You're too bright for me
You talk of tomorrow and all its promise
I linger in yesterday with its quieter solace
You dance in the morning, greet the sun's embrace
I'm haunted by moonlight, shadows on my face
You're too bright for me
You're too right for me
I take my talks late, my truth's in the breeze
You're too light for me
You're too bright for me
Maybe there's a middle where we both can meet
Halfway between your light and my street
Where dawn and midnight softly collide
A place where both our worlds can abide
You're too bright for me
You're too right for me
I take my talks late, my truth's in the breeze
You're too bright for me
