Concrete Over Water

I live in the city
The tower is blue and the sky is black
I feel the night, I sit, it's on my back
On my back
It makes me cry
This European air, swear it does
And randomly I'm grateful for, grateful for the night

Solemn nightwalker
2-hour-telephone-talker
It's you
Maybe it's you?

Oh, a night on the bridge we stood
Concrete over water
I think, you remind me of the night
But also of the day
I think of Italy, champagne
I think of Spain

Oh, I wanna be there
Oh, I'm over my head
Should've have meant it when I said
Now I'm over my head

I'm glad you take me as I am
Whatever shape with woman, man
Black or blue a filthy cheat I am
And you still come to see the band

Light and dark, at once
Never lonely in holy matrimony
So dazzlingly dark because of its bright
And truth is god, and god is light
The space behind the sky
On which the darkness depends on
In creation of light

Oh, a night on the bridge we stood
Concrete over water
I think, you remind me of the night
But also of the day
I think of Italy, champagne
I think of Spain

Oh, I wanna be there
Two sides of the moon
Black spots on the sun
