Lyrics

[Verse 1] A quarter moon on a city growing thick With good advice that won't stick From the ballrooms to the suburbs and the abandoned mines Atlantis may be rising but we're all outta time Oh, colored lights on the fire escape And bodies move behind drapes And the light is uneven and we're safer in pairs We're no match for what is waiting for each of us out there [Chorus 1] Whistle, baby, while we walk Now, don't say anything Do not talk The journey is over It is time to exhale Wherever we were going We're already there [Verse 2] It's over the turnstiles And through the guardrails And into Washington Square Oh, 'cause no amount of nightmares could ever compare To the thought of only silence in this ghost-filled air [Chorus 2] Whistle, baby, while we walk Now, don't say anything Do not talk The journey is over It's too late to prepare Why can't you see that baby We're already there [Verse 3] Here comes your silhouette and more pillow talk Here comes the ticking of these clocks They say the quickest way to end a war is just to lose Another chamber locks and I already withdrew Here comes the booming and the hunger of each night Here comes the burden of might Now this day was not divinely made to leave you impressed We may become someone someday but we haven't yet [Chorus 3] Whistle, baby, while we walk Now, don't say anything Do not talk The journey is over It is time to repair Whatever we were building Baby, we're already there [Outro] We're already there We're already there We're already there
