Outside your window
Waited for you
You didn't come

You never do

In the city in the winter time

The snow and the rhyme
Cover the isolation


Yesterday, baby, they told you the news
They meant no harm
They never do

You can take it anyway you want
It comes and it goes
Rising in broken waves and dreams



Heavy hours passing by the way

Heaven knows how I am trying, babe

I hear you breathing

So steady and true
The whole night long
The whole night through

Your lungs soft heaving
Slow drunken time
Falling with mine

Forever here

Heavy hours dragging by the way

Heaven knows how I am trying, baby
Heavy hours passing by the way
Heaven knows how hard I am trying, babe
