Florence And The Machine - Only If For The Night Lyrics
And I had a dreamAbout my old schoolAnd she was there all pink and gold and glitteringI threw my arms around her legs Came to weeping, Came to weepingThen I heard your voice as clear as day, And you told me I should concentrate, It was all so strange, And so surreal, That a ghost should be so practical.Only if for a nightAnd the only solution was to stand and fight, And my body was bruised and I was set alight, But you came over me like some holy rite, And although I was burning, You're the only lightOnly if for a nightThe grass was so green against my new clothes, And I did cartwheels in your honor, dancing on tiptoesMy own secret ceremonials before the service began, In the graveyard, doing handstands.And I heard your voice as clear as day, And you told me I should concentrate, It was all so strange, And so surreal, That a ghost should be so practical.Only if for a night.And the only solution was to stand and fight, And my body was bruised and I was set alight, But you came over me like some holy rite, And although I was burning, You're the only light.Only if for a night.Ooohh, Oooohhh, Woah-woah-woah.My doe, my dear, my darling, Tell me what all this sighing's about, Tell me what all this sighing's about.And I heard your voice as clear as day, And you told me I should concentrate, It was all so strange, And so surreal, That a ghost should be so practical.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night.Yeyeyeye-yeyeyeye-ahhaaaoooh.Only if for a night
