lyrics
Skipped the taxicab
To walk this night
Along the city street
Through the alley
And your threadbare world,
Surprised to glimpse a smile
Grateful I'm not there in your shoes
But should I be
You were there dancing
In the glow of the streetlights
And the trashcan fires
I see in you
More than I've built
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Crumbling satisfaction
Or greed
Take me all the
Way down
To such a sweet economy
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Joy
There's just enough
Enough for each of us
Traced the horrors
Of your war-torn world
Across my TV screen
Imagine my shock
To watch the laughter
Now lighting your bright young eyes
Could my heart live
Where you are
What audacity!
You were there singing
In the shadow of gunfire
And dark desire
Chorus
I’ll stay here
Beside you til it comes clear
Contentment is a flame
Burning brighter
Burning brighter
The blacker the night
I see in you
More than I've built
With every tower of
Crumbling satisfaction
Or greed
Take me all the
Way down
To such a sweet economy
When it comes to joy
There's just enough
Enough for each of us
To walk this night
Along the city street
Through the alley
And your threadbare world,
Surprised to glimpse a smile
Grateful I'm not there in your shoes
But should I be
You were there dancing
In the glow of the streetlights
And the trashcan fires
I see in you
More than I've built
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Crumbling satisfaction
Or greed
Take me all the
Way down
To such a sweet economy
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Joy
There's just enough
Enough for each of us
Traced the horrors
Of your war-torn world
Across my TV screen
Imagine my shock
To watch the laughter
Now lighting your bright young eyes
Could my heart live
Where you are
What audacity!
You were there singing
In the shadow of gunfire
And dark desire
Chorus
I’ll stay here
Beside you til it comes clear
Contentment is a flame
Burning brighter
Burning brighter
The blacker the night
I see in you
More than I've built
With every tower of
Crumbling satisfaction
Or greed
Take me all the
Way down
To such a sweet economy
When it comes to joy
There's just enough
Enough for each of us

Tycho is gorgeously crafted melodies set to smooth beats. Even if the music was bad(which it is not!) we would still stare at the album art for hours.
