've driven past it,
And for the second time you told me that
We're gonna miss what's happening above us.
So we held the line,
And left our cars to capture
A second while the world stood still.

Under skies illuminated
We forgot our busy lives.
"Why don't you unwind,
And take in the explosions of the night?"
I could not have said it better myself.

But the reflection
Off the water top's not stopping us
from bearing all and sprawling out.
I led you to scar my arm,
And get me off
Like the heroine you are.

We forgot our busy lives.
"Why don't you unwind,
And take in the explosions of the night?"
I could not have said it better myself.

We're looking on under the brilliant fallout
Where no one else's shadow dare follow.

Your worries are enamel deep.
Mine hide in the company we lean on.
Standing on each other's toes we fall.
WIth the fading light smoldering in stride,
But under skies -

Illuminated
We forgot our busy lives.
"Why don't you unwind,
And take in the explosions of the night?"
I could not have said it better myself.
