When I saw the Kansas skyline that night
I knew that my heart had moved from my chest out west
To the Midwestern silence of quiet lives
Where I can sleep at night

The east coast is constantly driving
And I am tired of being driven
Crazy by those electric city lights
That never, never, never close their eyes

We said we'd be happier here
Yeah we could be happy here
Be happier here

So let's walk around when this town shuts down
And the side streets and buildings are sleeping
And you and I are the dreams they won't believe during daylight
The light gets much too bright

And we know that the stars that shine on us now
Will be the same ones that burn out brightly
Well we are slow and sleeping tight
We're sleeping here tonight

We said we'd be happier here
Yeah we could be happy here
Be happier here

And outside
The stars' light
It burned a brilliant white
And everything that I saw that night came true
Well, I saw stars in your eyes that night
That would burn the brightest light
And everything that I saw that night came true

I saw God that night
I saw God that night
Running
Running
