"Like A Luminous Girl"
Saw you in the subway station
Shining with a strange light
Girl, you're like a weird vacation
How am I gonna make you mine, make you mine?
Then I fell out on the streets
To write a love song
Your face stared out at me from an ad
On the bus stop wall
And I know that you're fine
And that you're right
And the moonlight shines
Like a luminous girl tonight
Saw you in the Shipwreck Disco
Ghostly drifting 'cross the floor
Wondering just where could this go
And how to get you out the door, out the door
Then I fell out on the streets
To write a love song
Your face stared out at me from an ad
On the bus stop wall
And I know that you're fine
And that you're right
And the moonlight shines
Like a luminous girl tonight, that's right
Shining with the lights going strong
Shining with the lights going strong on my own
Saw you in the morning sunshine
You sang 'Star Love In The Night'
Fighting all the tears that came on
Squinting in the yellow light, the yellow light
Then I met you at the station
In Ronkonkoma
Sweetly resonating
With the things you are
And I know that you're fine
And that you're right
And the moonlight shines
Like a luminous girl tonight
Yeah, Jesus Christ's
Like a luminous girl tonight
Yeah, the moonlight shines
Like a luminous girl tonight
