The Night - Ian Lilburne

The Night
It’s sleek
Like a limousine
Like a velvet cat
To chase the thief
Let us out
Let our hearts run wild
Let our hearts run free
You know what I mean?

The night
We’ll dive into the getaway car
Drive to the sea
Moonlight walk the shore
Watch the tide
Pulse
Through a jagged reef
And the silhouette pines
Wave in the wind

A kiss
Deep
Like a well of fire
From two restless flames
Mingling
Marking time
Waiting for that kindling spark
The go-ahead sign
A green light

Tonight
We’ll climb into the limousine
And we’ll chase the thief
As he prowls the streets
Watch him hide
Watch his hands run wild
Watch his hands run free
You know what I mean?

The Night
It’s sleek
It’s like a limousine
It’s light a moonlit beach
Did we catch the thief
Then let him out
Let his hands run wild
Let his hands run free
You know what I mean?

Have you seen any silver limousines lately?
What about little green getaway cars?
