If I could go away, all by myself I'd give a break to your perfect, tired face; you haven't slept since I got in. And I'm held here prisoner of the foolish things we counted on. Ambition lets me down at the worst times. I keep telling you my whole life story; you sleep tonight, and I'll hear yours tomorrow. That is, if you feel like talking at all; 'cause it's not your style, but I would sure like to know you better. I have no will to find the details that made our energy rise and drop like a cannonball; you've been too quick to blame yourself. Before we fall asleep, let me stare in the eyes that carried me. Soon I think I should go; I want to go home. I keep telling you my whole life story; you sleep tonight, and I'll hear yours tomorrow. That is, if you feel like talking at all; 'cause it's not your style, but I would sure like to know you better. Before I leave, I think I deserve to know you better. Aus Songtexte Mania
