The nights are wearing me down
And it's hard getting through the day
'Cause I need you right now
And right now you're so faraway 

I guess I should have known
That I'd end up this way
But I swear [bad word] home
And then nothing will drag me away 

refrain:
Don't you ever leave me baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me baby
If you leave me you will kill me now 

The lights are slowly going down
On Lexington Avenue
And me, I'm all alone feeling the tears
falling down from my eyes 

subway train is passing by
Driving into the Darkness
I jump inside 'cause I ain't got
nowhere to sleep tonight 

refrain 

I was forcing myself just walk through the day
When all I really wanted to do was curl up in a corner and cry
Nothing had any meaning
And I just thought let's give it another day and see if anything happens
Then you came along like my own ray of sunshine
Made me feel warm, safe and alive again
