it's been raining ever since I got here

my shoes are soaked

and I'm dreadfully cold,

but I'll wait for you

you, who'll never show up

steal me a jewel that's worth it
maybe my own heart,
definitely my own heart.

pick the lock from this cage
and bring me my heart.
you seem like a criminal
you look like a criminal.

don't worry about the alarm
because I've fallen in love
with the one whose stolen my heart.

you look like a criminal
please act like a criminal.
prison is the home of the thief

like the last time you did
please;
like the only word I said
don't;
like the thoughts in my head
go;
like you'd come back here again

but for now,

down the block
smoking a cigarette

hailing a cab
stuck in traffic
sitting right next to him

walking to the door
with a hand on her back
asking to come in

stayed up all night
thinking that
