Only Dust Behind Lyrics by Allo Darlin’

7777777

2012

[Verse 1]
When the afternoon feels like morning
And my ears ring like a song
My hair smells of smoke
And I can taste
The drink on the back of my tongue
Put down your phone
Turn off the TV
And come on over to me
[Chorus]
And if I was ready
To get lost tonight
In a street filled with rain
Reflectin' the Christmas light
And if I was ready
I'd get lost tonight
In a street filled with rain
Reflectin' the Christmas light
[Verse 2]
Dear sister, don't let me down
And meet me only underground
There's a man over there
With a Santa hat on
Singing all the folk songs he knows
There's a girl over there
Looks like a lawyer
Throwing champagne on in her hair
[Chorus]
And if I was ready
To get lost tonight
In a street filled with rain
Reflectin' the Christmas light
And if I was ready
I'd get lost tonight
In a street filled with rain
Reflectin' the Christmas light
[Bridge]
Last night, we were shooting stars
We were leaving only dust behind
Last night, we were shooting stars
We were leaving only dust behind
[Instrumental Outro]
