Old brick holding midnight heat Cool sky leaning to our feet Steel and shimmer side by side Nothing to hide Brick and starlight We’re alright Brick and starlight All night Low glow, skyline slow Let it show Let it go Concrete memory under heel Stars above that make it real City breathing through the beams Half in dreams Brick and starlight Stay bright Brick and starlight Just right We don’t leave when clocks turn thin We let the next hour begin Wind through hair, glass through hand We understand Brick and starlight Hold tight Brick and starlight Feel light Since the years we learned to brace We now move in open space No collapse No disguise Just eyes On eyes Brick and starlight Still here Brick and starlight No fear Let it ride Let it rise Brick and starlight Under skies
