All alone in the night

[dalekboy]

Did my exercise jog after 10pm tonight. There aren't lights on the tracks I use. Running in the dark is nice. You're alone with the sussuration of the stars and the moon as they talk to the land in words whispered with light. You're moving through the world, listening to the frogs chatter and the trees whisper, just another animal flitting through the dark...

Must jog more at night.

We Didn't Start The Fire by Billy Joel.

I believe one of those songs where every line was a newspaper headline.

I have a friend who likes to jog or go for a walk at 3 in the morning.

Actually its "Dancing in the Dark" by Bruce Springteen:

"We Didn't Start The Fire" does have a similar chorus and appears to be a much more interesting, and chronologically rigourous, song than I realised:
