about

When I wrote this song, I was in a phase of trying to write more songs in Bm and caught a groove. Once I caught that groove, this song really wrote itself in almost the same length of time as it takes to sing it. That's usually a good sign!

lyrics

i try to think of practical things
like dangerous hearts and permanent flings.
i try to keep my motor set to drive.
and crash the car while staying alive.

it’s never too late to start.
you can always try to steal my heart.
it’s never too late to dream
of how things are and should have been.

stand up and dream again!
stand up and dream again!
because tonight will never end.

when i’m with you and only with you,
my heart comes undone. is this the night?
i’ll make it all right. scars moon rain and sun.

it’s never too late to start.
you can always try to steal my heart.
it’s never too late to dream
of how things are and should have been.

stand up and dream again!
stand up and dream again!
because tonight will never end.
