This night never happened   If it's alright with you   And not a word of our weakness   So much as a clue      Well, there's a place outside   I'm glad to play no part   The fairest arms can tally up   The faintest stars      Wash away my weekend   Shatter my sight   Come on sweet amnesia   You're needed here tonight      And take a seat in the shadows   Forget it as it goes   Well, dissipate in the morning air   All you know if you find out      You'll find every lie you might   I was nowhere near last night   Whitewash everything in sight      And these suspicions have been long drained dry   Our persistence holds them here   A maze of bars and rented rooms remain   Enough to make you almost look away      And this night never happen   If it's alright with you   Another for the collection   Of things we didn't do      That private party is over   Thank God we get new starts   The fairest arms still tally   Up the faintest stars      When it comes down   In a clear and certain light   I was nowhere near last night   I was nowhere near last night   Whitewash everything in sight      Whitewash everything in sight   Everything in sight, everything
