Do you remember when you said to me: now i lay me down to dream
i pray to you my soul to keep
i thought to rise before the week
and if i die before i wake, this heart of mine is yours to take
i fell for you while i wached you sleep
and now your all dressed down in your bed clothes
falling whichever the way the wind blows
i hope it takes you home
(x2)
you make beleive you dont get colder when it snows
she says ill leave the light on, if you promise youll come home
and oh how i miss that city love, this is too much to take
so if i sleep tonight ill think of you and hope i die, and hope i die before i wake
tonight i wont lye down
you see your lips wont make a sound
i keep my fingers crossed that the rain will stop, in hopes that i wont drown
we're just strangers sharing beds and memories
we're talking heads, our bodies fell apart and made an awful mess
now your falling out of your best clothes into the arms of oh who knows
it never reasures me cause i miss you so
you make beleive you dont get colder when it snows
she says ill leave the light on, if you promise youll come home
and oh how i miss that city love, this is too much to take
so if i sleep tonight ill think of you and hope i die, and hope i die before i wake
well sit pretty on the city roof tops
well keep singing till the music stops
lose our voices in the name of love, sometimes love just isnt enough
ive got high hopes of why i wont grow old
ive got that style and the chicago soul
ive got the matchstick feet come and dance with me
set fire to the streets
you look so pretty on the coty roof tops
just keep singing till the music stops
i went so close to home now i need you now dont go
(repeat twice with background going: ill leave the light on if you promise)
