Dark Roman Wine Lyrics - Up To Now - Snow Patrol

I will hang on the hook of your splendor 

As the night rolls us up in its arms 

And the square of your thumbs and your fingers 

Is the blanket of the sky that's so warm 

I know it's late but I can't help but think here 

That the day hasn't shown all its cards 

Now it's out to the stars of the ocean 

Let's not retrace our steps to the car

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Picking out all the stars that we like 

Between finger and thumb 

You laugh as you pass me the night 

As if it's too fragile to hold 

And I hold it so close to my chest 

With your hands in my hands 

You say this is just how we'll rest 

Until light turns to sun 

Now your eyelids they faint and they shiver 

Like the wings of the last bird to leave 

For the south for the heat for no reason 

I watch as they fly for sheer joy 

The wind shakes the branches above us 

And the cars shake the ground at our backs 

But the dark roman wine in our bloodstreams 

Makes the cold just a word, just a sound 

Picking out all the stars that we like 

Between finger and thumb 

You laugh as you pass me the night 

As if it's too fragile to hold 

And I hold it so close to my chest 

With your hands in my hands 

You say this is just how we'll rest 

Until the light turns to sun
