When the night returns
just like a friend
When the evening
comes to set me free
When the quiet house
that wait beyond
the day make
peaceful sounds in me
Took a drag from
my last cigarette
Took a drink
from a glass
of old wine
I closed my eyes
and I could
make it real and
feel it one more time
Can you hear it
babe?
Can you hear it
babe?
From another time
From another place
Do you remember it
babe?
And the radio played
like a carnival tune
as we lay in our bed
in the other room
When we gave it away
for the sake of a dream
in a penny arcade
if you know
what I mean....
If you know
what I mean...
Here's to the songs
we used to sing
And here's to the times
we used to know
It's hard to hold them
in our arms again but
hard to let them go
Do you hear it
babe?
Do you hear it
babe?
It was another time
It was another place
Do you remember it
babe?
And the radio played
like a carnival tune
as we lay in our bed
in the other room
When we gave it away
for the sake of a dream
in a penny arcade
if you know
what I mean
If you know
what I mean
If you know
what I mean
If you know
what I mean
If you know
what I mean
