Elbow - The Night Will Always Win lyrics

I throw this to the wind
But what if I was right?
Well, did you trust your noble dreams
And gentle expectations to the
Mercy of the night?
The night will always win
The night has darkness on it's side
I throw this to the wind

I miss your stupid face
I miss your bad advice
I tried to clothe your bones with scratches
Super 8s, exaggerated stories and old tunes
But never by the moon
And not the state I'm in
The night will always win
I throw this to the wind
But what if I was right?
Well, did you trust your noble dreams
And gentle expectations to the
Mercy of the night?
The night will always win
The night has darkness on it's side
I throw this to the wind

I miss your stupid face
I miss your bad advice
I tried to clothe your bones with scratches
Super 8s, exaggerated stories and old tunes
But never by the moon
And never the state that I'm in
The night will always win
