I'm afraid you make me blush, sir
Your compliments' so fine
I don't think I'll have another
Well maybe half a glass of wine
How long have you been in country?
Your uniform so clean
And your handsome face, now stop it
I'm sure I don't know what you mean
I can't believe it got this late
I must be getting home
Perhaps you will escort me
I live a good ways down the road

We killed them in the ditches
We killed them in the streets
We killed them in the forests
In the fields and on the beach
We blew up their trains and bridges
My sister, Hannie, and I
It's Date Night and I've never felt so alive, so alive

That wedding band? Oh, I understand
I assure you I am not that kind
Though in war we all must leave some things behind
If you can keep a secret
There's a shortcut through the woods
Dear, I think the night air
Would do the both of us some good

We killed them in the ditches
We killed them in the streets
We killed them in the forests
In the fields and on the beach
We blew up their trains and bridges
Three ghosts dancing in the pines
It's Date Night and I've never felt so alive, so alive

Hannie wore the storm like a
Like a flower's thorn
She carried a pistol like a poem in her palm
Her courage, courage was known
Only to the torture chamber walls
Now she's forever with the rebels
Of light and song, light and song

So we killed them in the ditches
We killed them in the streets
We killed them in the forests
In the fields and on the beach
We blew up their trains and bridges
My sister, Hannie, and I
It's Date Night, I never felt so
It's Date Night, I never felt so
It's Date Night, I never felt so alive, so alive
