Grammar

Can you use 'Cause although . . . ?

This is taken out from a lovely song by Expensive Lind. He seems to have a few more grammar errors in the lyrics.

He is using an interesting coupling I haven't heard before. I would dare to say it isn't correct in English, but somehow it sounds okay to me. It has a nice flow.

I see other quirks like "by soon" and "special cries along". What do you think?
And I say I'll never hurt her
but she knows it isn't true
'cos although I never told her
I think she knows bout me and you
now she cries with silent tension
this can't be right
and the downtown special cries along
'cos I'm leaving tonight
Now I slip the night around her
and I hope she'll be okay
I just pray someone will find her
and guide her along her way
'cos I'm leaving on the 1 am
by soon I'm out of sight
but she'll always be my baby
though I'm leaving tonight

Here are the lyrics again, as it got messed up when posting it via a tablet.

"And I say I'll never hurt her
but she knows it isn't true
'cos although I never told her
I think she knows bout me and you
now she cries with silent tension
this can't be right
and the downtown special cries along
'cos I'm leaving tonight
Now I slip the night aroun
