Here in this room, this narrow room
Where life began when we were young last night
I feel your back pressed close to me
And hear your steady breathing as you sleep
Then as the first soft glow of dawn
Moves silver-gray like paint along the wall
I touch your hand, feel your ream
And know this night is all we'll ever have
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
Read my name and it just seems to die
Then I feel your fingers running through
My mind, jumbling up my thoughts
To leave them tied to the ground
I know so well that this is all there is
And when we leave this room, it's gone
My mind is clear as we walk down
The crooked little steps to the front door
The ray of sun that ricochets from off the rooftop
Lights our stumbling way
I touch your hand, feel your ream
And know this night is all we'll ever have
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
Read my name and it just seems to die
I touch your hand, feel your ream



And know this night is all we'll ever have
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes
Read my name and it just seems to die
Then I feel your fingers running through
Rude my mind, jumbling up my thoughts to leave them tangled there.
Suddenly I look into your sleepy eyes, read my name and it just seems to die.
