I think of you through tear-clumped lashes and down another beer saying maybe this 2 a.m. will be different. I don't want you to see I just want you to know that I can't breathe, I can't eat, I can't sleep. My bed seems empty and I feel so weak but I can't think of anyone except you. These streets These nights The dark of the city, the dim of the lights all remind me of you. Oh tell me you love me you need me, you want me. Lie to me. Now... just give me one night - one night of hope and delusion, one night of sleep with you lying against my back and kissing me for sweet dreams. Then tomorrow... tomorrow I'll think of you through tear-clumped lashes.

These nights
I think of you through tear-clumped lashes and down another beer saying maybe this 2 a.m. will be different. I don't want you to see I just want you to know that I can't breathe, I can't eat, I can't sleep. My bed seems empty and I feel so weak but I can't think of anyone except you. These streets These nights The dark of the city, the dim of the lights all remind me of you. Oh tell me you love me you need me, you want me. Lie to me. Now... just give me one night - one night of hope and delusion, one night of sleep with you lying against my back and kissing me for sweet dreams. Then tomorrow... tomorrow I'll think of you through tear-clumped lashes.
