"When The City Sleeps" lyrics

Ooh, ooh...
Ooh, ooh...

You know I can't sleep, I can't face the moon
Too much truth
I only feel safe in the daylight, when there's something to do
Other than think of you

When the city sleeps, I think of you
And I don't want to
When the city sleeps, I dream of you
And I don't want to

You know I can't sleep, I can't count on you
Need an APB, put it out on you
It's been a long time since I've memorized a number
You're the only one, I don't need another number
I want you all night, not midnight
And if it takes all night getting it right, then I'm here
Girl the world's asleep, they can't hear, whisper in my ear

When the city sleeps, I think of you
And I don't want to
When the city sleeps, I dream of you
And I don't want to

You know I can't sleep, I can't face the moon
Just too much pain when I feel the truth
Daylight keeps me safe with my things to do
Damn the night and the ache it'll take me through
The skyline tells me I can't go back
Fall again into the deep, no, I can't do that
Yet I'm here
All around quiets down, oh my dear, it's my biggest fear

When the city sleeps, I think of you
And I don't want to
When the city sleeps, I dream of you
And I don't want to

Ooh, ooh
Ooh... ooh
