Babe, I know this is my fault
You only know how to run but you didn't learn that from me
I'm just a half crying out to be whole
Chose me even though you're empty
That can't be my fault
Oh God, It's the middle of the night
Caught a glimpse of the sun but you're a trick of the light
And I still tried
How can I stay alive on the street where I live?
Now I gamble like I've never loved
But the fast cars remind me of
Slow dancing in the square, strawberry perfume in the air
Hands in hair
Now cast your shadow
You kissed me even though you wanted to go
Oh God, It's the middle of the night
Caught a glimpse of the sun but love's a trick of the light
And God knows I've tried
You said I held the gun but it's gone and we're done
And how much I loved him doesn't matter anyway
I'm just a thorn in his garden but I'd never sting him that way
That beautiful love song we longed to be
I know we won't but my hands aren't cold when he's with me
Oh God, It's the middle of the night
Caught a glimpse of the sun but you're a trick of the light
And I'm alright
How can I stay alive on the street where I live?
How can I stay alive on the street where I live?
How can I stay alive on the street where I live?
