Hot  night,  Spanish  Harlem
full  moon,  creepin  low
 i was  standing at  the bottom
of  your blue  window
 I come  from miles,  just  to hold  you
been  so long  baby, how  ya been
do  you remember what  i told  you?
 your still  the same  it  was back then
 still  the same it  was back then
 and i hope  it all come easy
 i hope  it all feels right
 a dozen  different candles
 line  your bed tonight
 and i hope  it's never over
 i hope  it never ends
 when  i go, i hope that you will
want  me back again and I
 cause this  world,thats  all  around us
is  for real,tonight  again
and  the hate  and greed  surrounds  us
theres  love  in  my veins
 so hush  now,  do  no more talking
 my heart  is heavy, its  a ragged stone
all  i want  is you  with me walkin
because  i can't walk  alone
because  i can't  walk  alone
 And i hope  that when we go
 they'll take  us some place good
We  can all be kings
in  common neighborhoods
 and i hope  we live together
 the daughter  and the son
 and i hope  they take me in
 when my work  upon this earth is done
i  wish,  you loved  in miles
i  wish, that  you would see
how  time  says  that love expires
 but not  me,  not  me,  not me,  not me
not  me,  not  me,  not me,  not me
