I could try anything
but I'm not as smart as I used to be
you want to tell
my heart goodbye
I know, I know, I know
your heart don't lie
tell me what I gotta do
to be good for you.
When you smile
you're breaking me,
I don't know how
you put this change in me
I used to be so cruel
but now it's you
who's breaking all the rules
tell me why I'd want to hold on to you.
Tonight it's much too hot to sleep
and I walked all night
Jamie's drinking beer on the church steps,
five o'clock fire alarm.
Now I am walking down Rivington
East River Park
swinging on swings in the dark
I'm waiting for six o'clock.
I was sleepless second avenue
everybody's out tonight
85 at half past two
but you're sleeping by yourself...
She's real she's real I know my love is real
but from a block away
I can see your shades drawn down and black.
Be my baby.
