Whitewash

This night never happened

If it's all right with you

Not a word of our weakness

So much as a clue

There's a place outside

I'm glad to play no part

The fairest arms can tally up the faintest stars

Wash away my weekend

Shatter my sight

C'mon sweet amnesia

You're needed here tonight

Take a seat in the shadows

Forget it as it goes

Dissipate in the morning air

All you know

If you find out

You'll find every lie you might

I was nowhere near last night

Whitewash everything in sight

These suspicions have been long drained dry

Our persistence holds them here

A maze of bars and rented rooms remain

Enough to make you almost look away

This night never happened

If it's all right with you

Another for the collection of things we didn't do

That private party is over

Thank God we get new starts

The fairest arms still tally up the faintest stars

When it comes down

In a clear and certain light

I was nowhere near last night

I was nowhere near last night

Whitewash everything in sight...
