My sheets were cold tonight
Had to leave them for a dying fire
Burn up time for dreams
Lovely soul
You've gone to sleep
Silence empty house I cannot breathe
You've said too many nice things
Can I keep spinning to your turns
Can I just fall back in your open arms
And when you ask
I'll always sing you a song
'Bout a girl who tried to live inside a dream
Looking up at the ceiling they listened and there wasn't time to catch the feet kicked out from under me
Then I caught your eyes
Please can I keep them with me for a future time
They'll help me when I try to fly
Can I keep spinning to your turns
Can I just fall back in your open arms
And when you ask
I'll always sing you a song
'Bout a girl who tried to live inside a dream
Give me a book to read
Talk me your mind and let me see what's crashing round inside of you
Fire hasn't gone out yet
So can we climb the fire escape
We'll see just as far as we want to get
Can I keep spinning to your turns
Can I just fall back in your open arms
And when you ask
I'll always sing you a song
'Bout a girl who tried to live inside a dream
