All through the night They begin to take shape From the crack of the vinyl To the hiss of the tape Play and record Held down together Tabs pushed off So you can't tape over it ever Just a couple of friends Hanging out with each other We started to swap tapes To soundtrack our summer Tapes that are full Of the things we can't say To each other During the day All through the night They begin to take shape From the crack of the vinyl To the hiss of the tape Play and record Held down together Tabs pushed off So you can't tape over it ever It can't be just me That's working it out These songs that we've chosen And what they're about Are we after the same thing?
