Walkmen, The - Long Time Ahead Of Us Lyrics






Oh, bad luck, bad luck
You've come for me
And the day's only getting shorter
When you come, come along in the evening
Then leave me in the middle of the night

Take me tonight as I am
Leave me the way I was found

Oh, moonlight
Oh, moonlight
Help me sleep
There's far too much weight on my mind
The stars in the night sky
They worry me
Oh, shadows to my left, to my right

Oh, and tomorrow we'll rise
And the sky will be bright

Long time
Ahead of us
Good luck 'round every turn
Now that I got you

Walkmen, The Long Time Ahead Of Us Comments
  1. W.... V....

    this song sounds like floating through the slow motion of clinical depression.

  2. G.... M....

    The emotion that this band can generate with such minimal fuss: but You and Me is their masterpiece. I so wish I had seen them.

    G.... M....

    I was lucky enough to see them on the 'You and Me' tour and the 'Lisbon' tour. I don't take that for granted. They were the best.

  3. E.... M....

    drunken nights.

  4. A.... A....

    Beautiful song! I'll take the good luck :)

  5. R.... R....

    thank you Collective239 but how could this be the last comment on this song for 2 years?  Soooo good.

    Oh, bad luck, bad luck
    You've come for me
    And the day's only getting shorter
    When you come, come along in the evening
    Then leave me in the middle of the night

    Take me tonight as I am
    Leave me the way I was found

    Oh, moonlight
    Oh, moonlight
    Help me sleep
    There's far too much weight on my mind
    The stars in the night sky
    They worry me
    Oh, shadows to my left, to my right

    Oh, and tomorrow we'll rise
    And the sky will be bright

    Long time
    Ahead of us
    Good luck 'round every turn
    Now that I got you
