I lie alone on the bed
Watching "The Hours" while the cat keeps the door shut
Know the lines in my head
"Always the love and the years in between us"

I feel the weight of the world
Heavy beside me and asking me nicely
"What do you want, little girl? "
(Nothing else, nothing else)
Yeah, it's hard and it's tricky
Getting out of the city

It's a wonderful life
Being a wife and a man about business
But we're barely alive
Yeah, I think we could be like the air

Why don't you come out and dance with me?
Because it's only the same when you're next to me
Why don't you come out and play with me?
Because it's only the same when you're into me
Oh, oh, oh

How come it hurts when I read it out?
The message I sent that I'm staying out
Why don't you come out and be with me?
Because it's only the same when you're into me
Yeah

I hear you come up the stairs
Cracking the wood as you tumble into me
I'll take your worries and cares and
I know the world is bigger than we thought it would be

And as clear as the moon from a cloud
And the bell of the hour from the ropes in the tower
I feel
My feet leave the ground
Yeah, I think I could be like the air

Why don't you come out and dance with me?
Because it's only the same when you're next to me
Why don't you come out and play with me?
Because it's only the same when you're into me
Oh, oh, oh

How come it hurts when I read it out?
Yeah, the message I sent that I'm staying out
Yeah, why don't you come out and be with me?
Because it's only the same when you're into me
