Paper Cats is a lover's duo. We range through folk and anti-folk to rougher electrified rock and blues; Chris plays guitars--six string, twelve string, classical acoustic, electric, you name it--and Lauren mostly sings. Some of our work is Chris's solo guitar composition, some Lauren's solo ballads, but increasingly our work is collaborative, usually with Chris writing guitar parts and Lauren writing vocal parts. We are enjoying ourselves immensely.

Story behind the song
There's not much of a story to this. Chris was fooling around with the basic chord progression, and decided it was pretty. He then added the chorus bit, then the fairly off-putting coda bit. Then he decided it needed a pretty lyric.
Lyrics
the midnight is empty the sky draws a blank the stars have got nothing to say tomorrow's just a promise whispered in the dark in the last breath of today CHORUS we believe in the sun that the morning will come as we lay on our backs here hand in hand on the grass like the lawn collecting the dew with the moon up above us past the overcast clouds I'll see the night through with you CHORUS CODA the sky will clear, the sun will rise and tomorrow will come
