lyrics

When the city goes quiet, and the footsteps are few
My ears, they are listenin’ for summons, for clues
I puzzle the pieces, I rewrite the rules
But even though listenin’, would you refuse?

When the city goes quiet, and the footsteps are few
My eyes, they are lookin’ for outlines of you
If just by the lookin’, if just by these eyes
I could appear you, would it be by my side?

When the city goes quiet, and the footsteps are few
My hands, they are freezin’; my hands, they are fire
My body’s an orphan, my body don’t lie
Lay me down strangely, I will oblige

When the city goes quiet, and the footsteps are few
My heart goes a-wand’rin, my heart knows the view
How will you know, dear, how will I prove
If it’s forever or if it’s to lose?

When the city goes quiet, and the footsteps are few
My ears, they are listenin’ for summons, for clues
I puzzle the pieces, I rewrite the rules
But even though listenin’, would you refuse?
