In the middle of the night
comes a knocking at my door
there's a limousine outside
and i know who it's for
and i heard it being read
and i heard it being said
about the comfort in your head
and i wonder if it doesn't create a sense of shame
In the middle of the night
comes a knocking at my door
there's a limousine outside
and i know who it's for
and you're leaning on you wheel
and you're hard as you walk to the top of the hill
and you hope the will in your mind
does not jump from the edge to the climb with a sense of shame
it was the time before the last
we did not make up
and i threw you on the ground
and you did not get up
and i don't know why
and i don't know why
but there's something in your eye
and it made me want to cry with a sense of shame
it was the time before the last
we did not make up
and i threw you on the ground
and you did not get up
and i don't know why
and i don't know why
but there's something in your eye
and it made me want to cry with a sense of shame
you meet me deep in my sleep
i bury your heart on my knees all the time
you meet me deep in my sleep
i bury your heart on my knees all the time
In the middle of the night
comes a knocking at my door
there's a limousine outside
and i know who it's for
