Souvenir Songtext
von Justin James

Underneath the moonlit night
Floating above the city lights
Fire burns itself to gold
Keep your window open cause you might
Meet an angel on the wind
So close she′s whispering
Dancing lights the city breaths
Feeding off of all our dreams

Taxicabs are heading home
Clouds are writing lovers poems
Etched against your silhouette
Coming back, but just not yet I still need
A souvenir of city lights
It never truly turns to night
Embers always burning bright
How I see it in hindsight


Cause I can't go on without
Something new to ease my doubt
And every time I′m looking up
There's someone else looking down
And if you know the time is now
Why is it you seem unsure
Let's just take a leap of faith
And when you land you′ll have my word
Cause its time to go

I can feel you watching me at nighttime
A prisoner ...for a lifetime
Chasing empty streets that take you nowhere
A souvenir of something that is not there

Where you go when will is thin
That place you find to start again
Down these broken boulevards
Keep it closer than your heart beating
Following the clues you left
Never know what to expect
Holding hope but not my breath
Come and go these thoughts always fleeting


Try to trace from where you came
Stumble out an open flame
Every city breathes the same
Asking empty alleys for answers
And they barely echo out
Silence whispers all too loud
Wander till you loose your doubts
Nothing left to take but some chances

Cause I can′t go on without
Something new to ease my doubt
And every time I'm looking up
There′s someone else looking down
And if you know the time is now
Why is it you seem unsure
Let's just take a leap of faith
When you land you′ll have my word
Cause it's time to go

I can feel you watching me at nighttime
A prisoner ... for a lifetime
Chasing empty streets that take me nowhere
A souvenir of something that is not there
