lirik lagu mark kozelek - night talks

oh, we stay up
you and i on the phone, talking late
we talk about our recent netflix and a&e favorites
we talk about how the world around us has changed since we were young
we talk about the nice things that have happened and the difficult parts
and i’ve grown to where i depend on you
like how in the morning, i hear the train going ooh
like how i hear the wind going [whooshing]
and the cars on the highway going [engine sound]
and when i’m in town, dinner with my girlfriend
and coming home from my tour to a big, fat, cozy bed
oh, we’re getting older, aren’t we?
next thing you know i’ll be calling you from a fifty-five plus community
thinking i definitely didn’t p-ss up the opportunity
to tackle life with a tireless tenacity
yesterday it was one of your kid’s birthdays
she’s twelve and i remember when she was just a baby
she looked like a sack of white flour with legs and arms
and my girlfriend at the time said, “oh my god, i love that little one.”
we were both in our late thirties then
and we were both getting around so, so easily
and you were married then and i was with emily
but that all changed but everyone involved moved on happily

i remember my childhood room with these fluorescent posters and a blacklight
and i’d burn candles and incense all night
but dad would say, “mark, you’re gonna burn the house down.”
i thought he was paranoid then
but i fully understand him now
your room was so much different than mine
it had an extra window and much more sunshine
and your walls were painted a very light shade
soft blue and yellow like an easter egg

yesterday five people were murdered at the fort lauderdale airport
by a m-ss murderer, these things are daily news reports
on new years eve, a m-ss murder in turkey
while me and my girlfriend were sleeping in california, peacefully
i’m nervous they’re gonna send a nuclear bomb into the sky
directed at us while we’re asleep and take us by surprise
if that happens and my life flashes before my eyes
i hope that my beautiful love is sleeping beside me
and if the sirens go off and it’s time for the world to say goodbye
many memories will quickly flash through my mind
the ones that are the dearest to me
like our night talks
i always think of them fondly

and if for some reason your life goes before mine
know that our night talks meant everything
i’ll be fifty at the end of january
and our night talks are what i look forward to most throughout my day
i don’t want our night talks to ever go away
