Every morning I wake dreaming of you

On a window of a lane by the window of your room

Your long brown locks fall across your face

Your memory comes crashing down 'til all my bones break

I call out your name, it echoes in the room

I sleep on the couch, a bed will not do

I write your name in every color, a flower was made

And bury my face in your memory of all my mistakes

In the doorway on streets where you used to stand

And kiss me goodbye, you would hold out your hand

It's starting to rain on Broadway and Canal

I just scribble your name in tears in the book of my life

You will always be saved some place behind my eyes

Where it's always summer and we laugh in the summertime

D G D G
I don't wanna let go, take me back to the start

I will love you while we are learning to walk in the dark
