Let A Little Light In - Mipso Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Home movies end to end in the wee hours of the night
You finish one, you start again, but something isn’t right
Where’s the cereal-filled devil grin and the bannister slide?
Who could’ve taught him how to hide?

[Chorus]
Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in

[Verse 2]
So many wheels to ride in our cul-de-sac sea
We were alive outside
We were students of movement, weren’t we?
Another house, another car
It’s an endless imitation
Of course we had to learn to race them

[Chorus]
Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in

[Verse 3]
Thirteen candles make a ring
For a name to flicker out
The man beside you to the right
What’s he got to smile about?
Overeager reds and greens
I remember bright blends
How and when did the sepia seep in?
[Chorus]
Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in

[Verse 4]
Home movies end to end in the wee hours of the night
You finish one, you start again, but something isn’t right
Where’s the cereal-filled devil grin and the bannister slide?
Who could’ve taught him how to hide?

[Chorus]
Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in
Open the curtains and let a little light in
Let a little light in
