A sleepless night in the city
No peace and quiet in the city
It's hotter than the water from a boiler in the basement of Hell
In this low rent, walk-up, broken-down hotel
Counting the cracks on the ceiling
Flat on my back, and I'm feeling
Lower than the roaches in the tunnels of the one and the nine
And the clock says that I'm hallf past losing my mind
Through the tick tock tick
I can hear the faucet drip
When the neighbors brawl
I can hear 'em through the wall
But I'm waiting...
I keep waiting...
'Cause I want you
I want you back again,
I can remember when you and I were one
And I want to
I wanna change your mind
So I'm gonna bide my time, bearing my misery
Till you come to me
High noon, same room
This is when it gets so suffocating the air sits
Heavy, like the weight of my regret forever
Letting you go
And it don't matter wether the windows are opened or closed
There's a beep, beep beat from the traffic in the street
And I'm fading, going crazy
'Cause I want you
I want you back again,
I can remember when you and I were one
And I want to
I wanna change your mind
So I'm gonna bide my time, bearing my misery
Till you come to me
'Cause I want you
I want you back again,
I can remember when you and I were one
And I want to
I wanna change your mind
So I'm gonna bide my time, bearing my misery
Till you come to me...
Hey, hey, hey
Just you wait and see
You'll come back to me.
Just you wait and see
You'll come back to me.
Just you wait and see
You'll come back to me.
Just you wait and see
You'll come back to me.
Just you wait and see
You'll come back to me!
