Edward Hopper's lonely streets
But tonight they're ours to keep
Empty diners filled with dreams
Nothing's quite what it seems
We paint the night
With our bodies, our light
Rewriting the scene
Midsummer's dream
We're night painters now
Colors only we know how
We're night painters here
Making loneliness disappear
His paintings showed solitude
But we changed the mood
Two figures in the frame
Setting the canvas aflame
Hopper saw the empty spaces
We filled them with our faces
Turned his blue to gold
Turned his cold to bold
We're night painters tonight
Rewriting wrong to right
We're night painters, it's true
I paint the night with you
Every brushstroke is a breath
Every color defies death
We're alive in this scene
Living the midsummer dream
We're night painters, we are
Brighter than any star
Night painters, just us two
Painting the world brand new
