Election Night Lyrics - Bic Runga

Come around for tea 

Dance me round and round the kitchen 

By the light of my T.V 

On the night of the election 

Ancient stars will fall into the sea 

And the ocean floor sings her sympathy 

Drive me miles away 

Escape the sky that we lay under 

Of all the dreams we cannot shake 

We're always shaking in our slumber 

In the car don't let me fall asleep 

I might leave my heart here on your vinyl seat 

Well the sound of the city's now long gone 

And in the silence of the park and every darkened cinema 

Feel the little changes coming on 

So come to me where you belong 

Of all the bright machinery 

Love's the strangest of inventions 

How could this all just turn on me? 

When all I wanted was perfection 

And you are 

That's what you are to me 

You're the brightest star when all the world's asleep 

Well the sound of the city's now long gone 

And in the silence of the park and every darkened cinema 

Feel the little changes coming on 

So come to me where you belong 

Come to me where you belong
