we spent the night and the morning here
we talked... and once I even kissed you
I felt your feelings get all choked up by fear
and yes, I'm sorry that I missed you
come back... come here... come back here
come back... come here... come back here
you left me here and took a cab uptown
you left me with my feathers and my wine
I told you there were two ways to go: you can go up or go down
and when the time wasn't making you, you were making time
come back... come here... come back here
come back... come here... come back here
maybe some day when worlds are done
and the sky is but a memory
then we can slide into each other's love
you know... just like the thunder does, to the golden sea
come back... come here... come back here
come back... come here... come back here
living is a little game of give and take: gather and shed the time
what you're gonna give, you're surely gonna take
gather and shed the time
