"Romeo's Tune" lyrics

"Romeo's Tune"

Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Bring me southern kisses from your room
Meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Let me smell the moon in your perfume

Oh, gods and years will rise and fall
And there's always something more
Lost in talk, I waste my time
And it's all been said before
While further down behind the masquerade the tears are there
I don't ask for all that much I just want someone to care
That's right now

Meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Come on out beneath the shining sun
Meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Sneak on out beneath the stars and run

It's king and queen and we must go down now beyond the chandelier
Where I won't have to speak my mind and you won't have to hear
Shreds of news and afterthoughts and complicated scenes
We'll weather down behind the light and fade like magazines

So meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Bring me southern kisses from your room
Ooh baby
Hey hey, meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Let me smell the moon in your perfume

Oh yea, meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you everything's okay
Let me see you smiling back at me
Oh yea, meet me in the middle of the night
Let me hear you say everything's alright
Hold me tight and love and loving's free

So meet me in the middle of the day
Let me hear you say everything's okay
Bring me southern kisses from your room
Oh sweet baby
