Your mouth is running again
And I can tell that your friends
Will want to talk about it when they get home
Your window's open again
The fraying curtains at ends
I'd always loved to pretend it's all fine
Steel in the air tonight
Shiver in the neon light
We've got something beautiful(×2)
Please don't make me think of an excuse
Sing 'London's Burning' again while everybody pretends
The fiddler's playing 'til the end of our song
Whether in peace time or war time pieces on the wall
Better disguise the feeling that I've seen this place before
Steel in the air tonight
Shiver in the neon light
We've got something beautiful(×2)
Please don't make me think of an excuse
Has it been raining tonight?
Cause I can see that your eyes are running red from the sight
Just staring hard at the glow
Each finger's warm to the bone
These leaves washed out in the flow
As every statue arose
I saw it written in stone (Ah)
We work together, I forget the rest(×7)
We work together
Steel in the air tonight
Shiver in the neon light
We've got something beautiful(×2)
Steel in the air tonight
Shiver in the neon light
We've got something beautiful(×2)
Please don't make me think of an excuse
