NIGHTROAD
performed on:
By most accounts the finest song from FUN, a poetic and enduring jam with genuine spontaniety from Nick, who runs through his lyrics seductively to create one of the band's most alluring songs to date. This is the shortest song on the album, at 6:01.
we're not here 'cause we have to be
we're driving on our passion
there'll be times
the hard rain falling
in the middle of the night
and we can't see a thing
blow up in your face
screaming that nobody hears
oh, isolation
and drivin' on that nightroad
my eyes heavy like yesterday
for a second there's a streetlight
illuminates the contours of your face
and then I can press on
starting out on a journey
alone together
like we ought to be
