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 believe you don't get colder when it snows she says i'll leave the light on, if you promise you'll come home and oh how I miss that city love, this is too much to take so if I sleep tonight I'll think of you and hope I die, and hope I die before I wake tonight I won't lie down you see your lips won't make a sound I keep my fingers crossed that the rain might stop, in hopes that I won't drown we're just strangers sharing beds with memories Songtextewe're talking heads, our bodies fell apart and made an awful mess Now you're falling out of your dress clothes Into the arms of... Oh, who knows. If memory serves me well, I miss you so. you make believe you don't get colder when it snows she says i'll leave the light on, if you promise you'll come home and oh how I miss that city love, this is too much to take so if I sleep tonight I'll think of you and hope I die, and hope I die before I wake We'll sit pretty on the city rooftops We'll keep singing 'til the music stops We'll lose our voices in the name of love But sometimes love just isn't enough I've got high hopes, and no, I won't grow old I've got that style and that chicago soul I've got matchstick feet, come and dance with me We'll set fire to the streets You look so pretty on the city rooftops Please keep singing 'til the music stops Your silhouette's so close to home You know I need you now, Don't go.
