about

When I started on this one I set out to write a song that sounded a bit like Bombay Bicycle Club and succeeded in writing a song that sounded absolutely nothing like them.

I mulled it over for about a year before showing it to the band. But once I had it was the easiest one to put together we've ever had. We had it nailed (by our standards) within about an hour and we probably gigged it that week.

We all thought this would be our song to put us on the radar; it was fast, it was cool, it was catchy. But then we decided to release it at Christmas and almost nobody gave a toss. Couldn't even get it a spin on BBC Introducing. So please give it a listen now and mend our egos.

lyrics

I've always been a creature of the night until now
The moon has always seen me go right somehow

Pulling me just like he does the tide to the shore
But I do't want to spend another night on the dance floor

Oh, I will crawl
To the dance hall
I wait for your call
But you're not coming at all

Something about him doesn't seem as bright as before
Ever since she started knocking on my front door

I say you and I are ready for the big swim
So what do you say we stop talking and just drive in

Oh, I will crawl
To the dance hall
I wait for your call
But you're not coming at all

Baby please don't get so sentimental
Smoke your cigarette and we'll soon resemble...

I've always been a creature of the night until now

Oh, I will crawl
To the dance hall
I wait for your call
But you're not coming at all

Oh, I will crawl - Get off your hands and knees
To the dance hall - You're never gonna find me
I wait for your call - Well you''ll be waiting all night
But you're not coming at all - Not until the time is right
