I've spent my last ounce of hope, I've got nothing to show for a while now, But if you throw me a rope, I might be able to cope with the down and out Wish I could float, the water's up to my throat And the calls to my friends they are drowning out, Last time we spoke I said I needed you most I just need someone to be around Oh, someone to be around Oh, someone to be around My legs start to shiver, My soul starts to quiver I think of the last time you spoke to me You said everything has a meaning, Oh everything happens for a reason But when someone's alone the words aren't that strong And I just long for someone to be around Oh, someone to be around Oh, someone to be around Oh, someone to be around Ooh yeah See my head is all clouded From thinking about it I'm trying to find my peace of mind But there's no way around it, And you just compound it By saying that I'm just a waste of time I said maybe I know this, But choose not to show it I hope I am able to work it out But now I will struggle with all of my troubles And I need someone to be around Oh, someone to be around Ooh, someone to be around Oh, someone to be around Ooh, someone to be around Oh, someone to be around, yeah Ooh, someone to be around, yeah Oh, someone to be around, yeah Ooh, someone to be around

You walk down Alameda Shuffling your deck of trick cards over everyone Like some precious only son Face down, bow to the champion You walk down Alameda Looking at the cracks in the sidewalk Thinking about your friends How you maintain all them in A constant state of suspense For your own protection over their affection Nobody broke your heart You broke your own 'Cause you can't finish what you start Walk down Alameda brushing off the nightmares you wish Could plague me when I'm awake So now you see, your first mistake Was thinking that you could relate For one or two minutes she liked you But the fix is in You're all pretension I never pay attention Nobody broke your heart You broke your own 'Cause you can't finish what you start Nobody broke your heart You broke your own 'Cause you can't finish what you start Nobody broke your heart You broke your own 'Cause you can't finish what you start Nobody broke your heart If you're alone it must be you that wants to be apart

Do you think that it'd be warm in Montana If I only went for a day No, I won't move out of this city Because I always take her with me I just need, I need, I need to get away And I'm not sure I'm gonna make it to all fifty I never met a state that didn't leave a bruise 'Cause I was born heavy handed And then the money left me stranded So, I've got time to give and daylight to lose So, I'm gonna call you tomorrow Even if you don't pick up and I'm gonna tell you I love you Even though it's not enough And if they ask if I was boring, you could tell 'em this story Oh you can say, I say, I say too much Like how I wish you didn't move to Colorado No wait, I wish I didn't keep you in my phone 'Cause every time I start to miss you Oh I could tell you in an instant And you don't need to, need to, need to know Then I had that dream where we meet in San Francisco And you look at me like I'm a bad idea And then we kiss a million times 'cause I rehearsed my lines Of what I'd say, I'd say, I'd say to you So, I'm gonna call you tomorrow Even if you don't pick up and I'm gonna tell you I love you Even though it's not enough And if they ask if I was boring, you could tell 'em this story Oh you can say, I say, I say too much So, I'm gonna call you tomorrow And hope that you don't pick up So that I can tell you I love you Until the voice mail interrupts And when they ask too many questions Baby let them Because I play, I play, I play, I play too much

You can be the moon I'll be the sun You leave too soon We've barely just begun We've barely just begun I watch and I rise But you control the tides From the highest of the highs You took me for a ride You took me for a ride We'll go and run in circles, a force you can not fight Cause I am the day and you are the night And it's in your nature, to orbit it close than far I thought you could defy it and be my shining star My shining star You let me shine through To make the fullest of the moons Took credit for my light And the magic from my eyes You took the magic from my eyes We'll go and run in circles, a force you can not fight Cause I am the day and you are the night And it's in your nature, to orbit it close than far But I thought you could defy it and be my shining star My shining star Goodnight my stars Goodnight my moon, moon I see your waves they crack monsoon [?], soon (Ooooo) (I see your waves) (Ooooo) (Soon) Goodnight my stars Goodnight my moon, moon I see your waves it cracked monsoon [?], soon Goodnight my stars Goodnight my moon, moon
