That Night
by Tara-Leigh Cobble

Album: Morning's War

Verse 1:
if that night...
were a house condemned on an empty street
i'd sleep on the porch just to get a peek
i would quit my job and i would never leave
through the crack of the door, i would drink it deep

Pre-Chorus:
and the cops would come 'round, try to drive me off
swinging billy clubs, re-inventing laws
but i'm not moving on

Chorus:
'cause you are a storm
and you are silence
you are the darkest
and you are the brightest
i'll be here all night
can i lay by your side

Verse 2:
locks are rusted shut, boarded up windows
i hear your voice inside, you won't answer though so i'll break the glass, just to breathe you in
but you evaporate, through my hands again

Pre-Chorus:
and the firemen won't know when they see the flames
that i had no choice, i had no escape
but i'm not moving on
no, i'm not moving on

Chorus:
'cause you are a storm
and you are silence
you are the darkest
and you are the brightest
i'll be here all night
can i lay by your side
i'll be here all night
can i lay by your side

Bridge:
prayers deferred or never heard
have found an answer in your words
love came alive, but built its walls
and now it burns

Chorus:
you are a storm
and you are silence
you are the darkest
and you are the brightest
you are a storm and you are silence
you are the darkest
and you are the brightest
you are a storm
and you are silence
