about

Help Me Make It To The Night is a love letter from me to the 1980s. It started out as a bass line and a few snippets of lyrics, and took me more than a year (on and off) to finally put to bed.

lyrics

Call you up, are you okay?

I'm already on my way

I hope that I'm not out of line

But I think about you all the time



If you go left when I go right

Well, maybe you can spend the night

I don't mind if you haven't got long

I just want you to listen to this song



'Cause I'm afraid of growing old

Wasted pages and years I've sold

I bite my lip when I can't speak

I turn my head, and I grit my teeth



Cause there's a face that I love

But I don't know what it means

A mouth full of brass tacks and gasoline

But if you get up and shut the light

You know I won't put up a fight



This dance is such a fright

You know I'm not one to fight

I don't care if I'm alright

Just help me make it to the night



Call you up, are you okay?

I'm already on my way

I hope that I'm not out of line

But I think about you all the time



If you go left when I go right

Well, maybe you can spend the night

I don't mind if you haven't got long

I just want you to listen to this song



You've got a face that I love

Oh don't you know what I mean

My heart full of marbles and saccarine

But if you just let me hold you tight

I think I'm gonna be alright



This dance is such a fright

You know I'm not one to fight

I don't care if I'm alright

Just help me make it to the night
