A sleepless night in the city

No peace and quiet's in the city

It's hotter than the water

from a boiler in the basement of hell

In this low rent walk of broken down hotel



Countin' 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 tells me

that I'm half past losing my mind



Through the tick-tock-tick

I can hear the faucet drip

When the neighbors brawl

I can hear them through the wall

But I'm waiting

I keep waiting



Cause I want you

I want you back again

I can't remember when

You and I were one

And I want to

I want to change your mind

So I'm gonna bide my time

Bearin' 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 whether the windows are open or closed



There's a beep-beep-beep

From the traffic in the street

And a bang-bang-bang

Like a hammer in my brain

As I'm fading

Going crazy



Cause I want you

I want you back again

I can't remember when

You and I were one

And I want to

I want to change your mind

So I'm gonna bide my time

Bearin' my misery

Till you come to me



Cause I want you

I want you back again

I can't remember when

You and I were one

And I want to

I want to change your mind

So I'm gonna bide my time

Bearin' my misery

Till you come to me



Hey



Just you wait and see

You'll come back to me

Just you wait and see

You'll come back to me

Oh no no

Just you wait and see

You'll come back to me

Baby just you wait and see

You'll come back to me
