i'm a princess cut from marble
and love doesn't come easily
christmas night, another fight
in sleep he sang to me

listen to my heart
you didn't close the door
don't you cherish me to sleep
dreaming my life away

i don't know where we're going
i had a feeling once
you and me are the same
remember that song i sang to you?

i look back to the one and only summertime
i'm not saying it's your fault
i'm out here a thousand miles from my home
there's no saving anything

welcome to the real world
you know i've always got your back
don't breathe too deep
another summer day has come and gone away

when that moon gets big and bright
i don't wanna talk
i wish i could hold you up
the mirrors don't reflect my face

i don't need nobody
the power lines went out
10 o'clock, late drive home
please know i'm trying

would you like to take a walk with me?
in the night i hear them talk
you said i didn't cry out to the clouds for nothing
you were always hard to hold

you've seen so many faces that i've never seen before
i just can't do it alone
but i know where you stand
i don't know where you've been

i'm lying in the ocean
"calm yourself", he says to me
i'll gather up the avenues
times square can't shine as bright as you

i'd run away
don't you suppose it's such a waste?
if my heart is always searching
when you're floating farther away

i'll be waking wishing i was right
is it me, is it you
we're not the same, dear
but i think we should run

if you hate me, why'd you come here baby?
no one has to understand
i guess it was never enough
there can only be one
