"The Nights Are Wild"
Words and Music by Just A Hobby
Appears on Pish Posh
When you cover up the distance with a quiver in your voice.
Will you be alright? Will you be alright?
If your memory's persistence holds you long into the night.
Will you be alright? Will you be alright?
'Cause the nights are wild but the truth will set you free.
When I was a child, my father said to me,
"You've got to hold on to what you love the best.
And if you love's strong, you can put it to the test
But if she's gotta run, she's gonna run to the night
And you'll be alright.
I remember walking with you. The sunlight in your eyes.
Will you be alright? Will you be alright?
When your fresh imagination kept me hypnotized
Will you be alright? Will you be alright?
'Cause the nights are wild but the truth will set you free.
When I was a child, my father said to me,
"You've got to hold on to what you love the best.
And if you love's strong, you can put it to the test
But if she's gotta run, she's gonna run to the night
And you'll be alright.
