Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon’s sparkling
So shift me

The fire’s dying out
All the embers have been spent
Outside on the street
Lovers hide in the shadows
You look at me
I look at you
There’s only one thing
I want you to do

Shift me
I want you to shift me
Like a stranger once again
Shift me like a stranger once again
– Shift Me, Tom Waits
