Cardigans Song For The Leftovers Lyrics

The night s on the edge now Hanging low against the tide The world is at it's best now When the loveless ones collide

It's a long night A beautiful night And we're the first leftovers of the night

I'm thinking 'bout the last times And the people i had to hurt I wonder why they couldn't touch And why i never gave it up

You weren't hard to find You didn't run and hide We were the first leftovers of the night Hide of the night

The silence is a burden When you don't really want to talk I'm trying really hard now To set alight my sleepy heart

We made a pretty sight It seems we've found some pride In being the first leftovers of the night Hide of the night, i-ight
And everything is alright now Everything is alright now Everything is alright

You're not what i was after But i'm happy with what i found To dream of new beginnings When the end is all around

I think you're alright You qualify For being my supernova It's a gambling life A lonely strife But i think we're the best leftovers of the night Hide of the night, hi-hide

And everything is alright now Oh everything is alright now Everything is alright
