Just give me a second
Before I pack up my boxes and shut you out of my life
Just give me a minute
So I can drink up the feeling we had just one last time
Your shadow's staying in the carpet
So I got hardwood floors The noise punched through the window
I don't sleep anymore We
move to the rhythm of the traffic on the
street The street
I try to dance now but I can't feel no beat,
no beat
And under the sidewalks
I
ride the subway cause I look for you in every face
Don't wanna find you
though Cause 8 million strangers lose
their distance once you take their place
8 million bodies someday listen now I'm out of space
There's nothing left for me in this city anymore
Maybe I'll finally get some sleep at night
Maybe I'll finally get some sleep at night
And without the light too blind I can't see the stars at night
Windows open,
shut my eyes Sink my resting heartbeat through the night
Without the light too blind I can't see the stars at night
And without the light too blind I can't see the stars at night
So when the silence gets too loud I feel you calling me home
Sink my resting heartbeat
through the quiet night
