Slow dancing on the boulevard In the quiet moments while the citys still dark Sleepwalking through the summer rain In the tired spaces You could hear her name when she was warm and tender And you held her arms around you There was nothing but her love and affection She was crazy for you Now she's part of something that you lost (Refrain) And for all you know This could be The difference between what you need And what you wanna be Yeah, what you wanna be Night swimming in her diamond dress Making small circles move across the surface Stand watching from the steady shore Feeling wide open and waiting for Something warm and tender Now she's moving further from you There was nothing that could make it easy on you Every step you take reminds you that she's walking on (Refrain) Yeah, for all you know This could be The difference between what you need And what you want Every word you never said Echoes down your empty hallway And everything that was your world Just came down Day breaking on the boulevard Feel the sun warming up your second hand heart Light swimming right across your face And you think maybe someday, yeah Maybe someday (Refrain) For all you know Yeah, this could be The difference between what you need And what you want Yeah, for all you know For all you know Yeah, for all that you know This is what you wanna be Girl, what you wanna be Hey! Hey! Hey! I found out On a late-night drive In my winter coat With my bloodshot eyes And my faith ain't been No friend to me And the way I sin Is hanging off of me And I'm sorry It can't take me anywhere Pretty soon we're almost there Baby, one more night It's been a long, long drive And I'm way, way tired I don't need no backup plan Said, I don't want nobody Nobody don't want me And I'm so sad so lonely And I'm always landing on my feet One more time With a sad, sad smile And your white-breath friends In the circus life All the one-way rides And those sweet beginnings Passing on the left-hand side With a sideways smile And I'm always One step from stalling By those trips they make Baby, dance all night With your ass on fire And your hands up high And feel me one more time Said, I don't want nobody Nobody don't want me And I'm so sad so lonely And I'm always landing on my feet Well, I learn to love myself And I don't need no one else And when the love moves on 'Cause it gets cold And another moves in And it could fill the hole And I'm one more hopeful Lying on the bedroom floor No sense trying When the whole thing drops You lose your nerve I hope you get what you deserve Said, I don't want nobody Nobody don't want me And I'm so sad so lonely And I'm always landing on my feet And I don't want nobody Nobody don't want me And I'm so sad so lonely And I'm always landing on my feet Hey! Hey! Hey!
