When the night returns just like a friend When the evening comes to set me free When the quiet house that wait beyond the day Make peaceful sounds in me Took a drag from my last cigarette Took a drink from a glass of old wine Closed my eyes, and I could make it real And feel it one more time Can you hear it, babe Can you hear it, babe From another time From another place Do you remember it, babe And the radio played like a carnival tune As we lay in our bed in the other room When we gave it away for the sake of a dream In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean If you know what I mean babe And here's to the songs we used to sing And here's to the times we used to know It's hard to hold them in our arms again But hard to let them go Do you hear it, babe Do you hear it, babe It was another time It was another place Do you remember it, babe And the radio played like a carnival tune As we lay in our bed in the other room When we gave it away for the sake of a dream In a penny arcade, if you know what I mean If you know what I mean If you know what I mean If you know what I mean If you know what I mean babe If you know what I mean babe
