[Boy]
What did you expect, getting mad so close to bed?
It wasn't so bad what I said.
Oh, my little one...you're the princess and the pea,
simultaneously.
[Together]
The window was open, we laughed as we opened it,
loving the little breeze.
Then words were exchanged and it all rearranged
in a milky moonlight freeze.
[Girl]
I didn't know the place, and yet I knew it very well.
A city big with nighttime filled.
I had a basement flat, but I kept finding other rooms.
I was thrilled, but lonely too.
[Boy]
Sometimes I think you'd rather be alone. You're hanging like a thread
on the edge of sadness, on your side of the bed.
What I want is what we usually have, you close against my back,
but I'm too crazy right now, and I'm not gonna crack.
[Together]
We live together, we go to sleep together
and we fall asleep alone.
Maybe I'll see you or maybe I won't,
or you're no one I have known.
[Together]
[Girl]
If I'd known what I was gonna dream...a world without you...
I would have held your heart much tighter...tonight that's what I'll do.
[Boy]
I don't really dream the way my baby does each night...tonight I'm gonna hold her tight.
