Lyrics
0:25Falling out of nowhere calling out your number
0:31Books beside the bed just where you lay your head
0:37Man behind the counter drinking limonata
0:43Looks me in the eye before he turns away
0:49Time makes every man a mess to save
0:55Knocking on the same old doors and running away
1:01Climbing up the fire escape
1:04And I carry my mistakes so well oh well
1:24Cigarettes and coffee is all you have to give me
1:30Sitting in the lobby on my own
1:36Come and look right at me say what you have for me
1:42Faces in the curtains watching every move we make
1:48Speaking to the red phone thinking of the ride home
1:53Standing in the shower with the water running cold
1:59Sit and watch the shining
2:02With just the kitchen light on
2:09They say time makes every man a mess to save
2:17Knocking on the same old doors and running away
2:24Climbing up the fire escape
2:27'Cause I have nowhere to run oh no
2:33Oooh no
3:08Oh
3:14Oh
Falling out of nowhere calling out your number Books beside the bed just where you lay your head Man behind the counter drinking limonata Looks me in the eye before he turns away Time makes every man a mess to save Knocking on the same old doors and running away Climbing up the fire escape And I carry my mistakes so well oh well Cigarettes and coffee is all you have to give me Sitting in the lobby on my own Come and look right at me say what you have for me Faces in the curtains watching every move we make Speaking to the red phone thinking of the ride home Standing in the shower with the water running cold Sit and watch the shining With just the kitchen light on They say time makes every man a mess to save Knocking on the same old doors and running away Climbing up the fire escape 'Cause I have nowhere to run oh no Oooh no Oh Oh
