There's a weakness in the window, place my footprints in a dark room.
There's lonely voices like a scarecrow in the hallway like a lost ghost.
In the bedroom I see a shadow from the moon with light from a candle.
On a bed frame lies a girl, her reflection in the mirror.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
I like your eyes wide.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
I'm knocking at your backdoor.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
It hurts like a knife fight.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
Be careful what you ask for.
I do this from time to time where I can never wake from a bad dream.
I do this from time to time where I can never say the things I mean.
I do this from time to time where I like to watch you as you sleep.
I do this from time to time where I like to think of you and me.
It's a dark night on the west coast, then a soft breeze as the sun rose.
Then the phone rang like a gunshot, like a siren on the beach rock.
There's a message at the river, a certain package here to deliver.
When the day breaks, after nightfall, I will be there you know I will.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
I like your eyes wide.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
I'm knocking at your backdoor.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
Nervous like a knife fight.
Yadada dadada dadada dadala dada
Be careful what you ask for.
I do this from time to time where I can never wake from a bad dream.
I do this from time to time where I can never say the things I mean.
I do this from time to time where I like to watch you as you sleep.
I do this from time to time where I like to think of you and me.
I'm feeling the shape and the sound of my heartbeat, can't let go.
Do you know, I'm feeling the pain of my first love, I gotta go, can't let go.
[Repeat til out]
I do this from time to time where I can never wake from a bad dream.
I do this from time to time where I can never say the things I mean.
I do this from time to time where I like to watch you as you sleep.
I do this from time to time where I like to think of you and me.
(Time to time)
