[Verse] The moon’s a lamp with a crooked shade Stars spill out like lemonade The clock’s hands reaching for the prize Take a breath and don’t compromise [Prechorus] Shadows stretch They yawn They bend The night is crawling to the end [Chorus] The world rests tonight So still So bright Even chaos takes a break The world rests tonight So wrong or right It’s the thrill I cannot shake [Verse 2] Twitchy whiskers trigger soon Eyes so prowly stalk the moon The driver drives away As the dog days make their getaway [Prechorus] Dreams await as idle fingers prance The air is thick with circumstance [Chorus] The world rests tonight So still So bright Even chaos takes a break The world rests tonight So wrong or right It’s the thrill I cannot shake [Prechorus] The clock’s hands reaching for the prize Snatched away right before our eyes [Chorus] The world rests tonight So still So bright Even chaos takes a break The world rests tonight The only fright Is the chance we did not take
