You stop smiling when I stop talking Hands in your pockets, the stars are out tonight You tell me something, do I look familiar? ‘Cause we met before, but before we never cared We sit on the subway and wait a while But neither of us is planning to go home She went sleeping with the voices creeping None of the lights of the city can reach us here Tonight was put together for us, my dear
Well, if you’re waiting for the better story Something more extraordinary Then I don’t stand a chance Then I don’t stand a chance… Alone
I’m too tired, it’s just too early I’m taking a train, but I don’t know where it’s taking me I spent the morning trying to stay focused ‘Cause I’ve met the lead from all my stories You’re not a story, and I knew that before we Stayed up too late, you made me go to sleep But I wasn’t tired, at least I didn’t wanna be But I fell asleep ’cause my head was finally clear Tonight was put together for us, my dear
Well, if you’re waiting for the better story Something more extraordinary Then I don’t stand a chance Then I don’t stand a chance… Alone
