You didn't say it was your birthday
You didn't say that it was going down
Ayia Napa on a Thursday
Somewhere quiet on the edge of town

Then the Irish bar
For one last hurrah
Misspelt in the stars

Here come the early nights
Catching the falling light
Here come the early nights
Here come the early nights
Feels like the end's in sight
Here come the early nights

Now we gotta split the money three ways
Doing calculations in the dirt
And everyone's a DJ
'Til somebody gets hurt

All that she wants
Is one more response
But everything screams

Here come the early nights
Catching the falling light
Here come the early nights
Here come the early nights
Feels like the end's in sight
Here come the early nights

Outside the crickets drone
The birds and bees missed their flight home
A thousand lonely mating calls
Marker penned on toilet walls
The ghosts of long dead summer lust
Eighteen to thirty in the dust
Now the song on the radio
Is one that we will never know, oh

Here come the early nights (Here come the early nights)
Catching the falling light (Catching the falling light)
Here come the early nights
Here come the early nights (Here come the early nights)
Irrelevant feels so right (Catching the falling light)
Here come the early nights
