  • For the lot in the silver
    I don't wanna look to the past
    I know
    From a fountain in silver
    I would let you know
    To a fine line
    All that emotion
    Do you run? Does the conscience build up
    I'll be the last to know
    To a fine line
    He'll be last, yeah, he'll be last

    Every time (every time)
    Ooh-hoo
    Every time (every time)

    And the stars will align (every time)
    You ain't lying (ooh-hoo)
    You gon' take me to the light (every time)
    Every time
    Every time

    We're not always eye to eye
    But you're always by my side
    And when I'm in my darkness (keep it rational)
    (Keep it classy though)
    I just read the words you write
    (He'll be last to know, he'll be last)

    And you still take me to light (every time)
    Ooh-hoo
    You still take me to light (every time)
    And the stars will align (every time)
    You ain't lying
    You ain't lying
    You ain't lying
    You gon' take me to the light (every time)
    Every time
    Every time
    Every time

    There's a tree out in the field
    Where I first felt that it was real
    (Ain't no "look alive", ain't no "other side")
    Tree ain't gotta listen
    Tree ain't got an eye
    We could feel the vibe
    We could touch the sky
    What a sense of balance
    Tree's catching fire (he'll be last know)
    What a way to die

    And you still take me to light (every time)
    Ooh-hoo
    You still take me to light (every time)
    And the stars will align (every time)
    You ain't lying
    You ain't lying
    You ain't lying
    You gon' take me to the light (every time)
    Every time, take me
    Every time, take me
    Time

    We know there are stars above us
    Like we know we're alive
    And though times are changing (keep it rational)
    And we can see the yellow sign (keep it classy though)
    Two points still form a line (he'll be last to know)
    And you still take me to the (he'll be last)

    And you still take me to the light (every time)
    Ooh-hoo
    You still take me to the light (every time)
    And the stars will align (every time)
    You ain't lying
    You ain't lying
    You ain't lying
    You gon' take me to the light (every time)
    Every time
    Every time
