It's 1 am and it's getting late
And she was waiting on the fire escape
With cigarettes and christmas lights
She turns to me and says"are you tired?"
She says "sometimes it's just the jazz that matters
And nothing seems to make sense anymore
And i've been pulling out my hair
And falling down these stairs..."

And i think..
.this is how it ends
And i'm turning off the radio
So i can hear you breathe
I'm sleeping with the lights on
So i can see you leave ...

Throwing rocks beneath the bridge
I can't explain what we just did
No words to leave just time to keep
"it's getting dark" she said "can we go to bed?"
Just go to bed...
For 1000 words, can we take a picture to remember today?
And everytime i said too much
I know that it was just enough to make you stay
So i'm turning off the radio
So i can hear you breathe
I'm sleeping with the lights on
So i can see you leave

If i wake up in the morning and you're gone
I hope it's not for long
And she says i can hear you on the phone
But i can't hold you from so far away
And if you have to say goodbye
Does it have to be today?

And i'm turning off the radio
So i can hear you breathe
I'm sleeping with the lights on
So i can see you leave
If i wake up in the morning and you're gone
I hope it's not for long
