lyrics

we huddled in close inside your car
snow was falling down
all alone in a cold dark town

flashing lights from inside the bar
music from the street
sounds of passing feet

bring me down, bring me down sweetly
why'd i have to wait?
why'd i have to wait?

let me down, let me down gently
why'd you have to wait?
why'd you have to wait?

it's getting late, the bottle's empty
your lipstick on the rim
i'm drowning while you swim

a sentimental symphony
this whole thing's a mess
a noise made in distress

we stare for hours by my bed
the moon spreads on the sheets
we do not need to speak

the silence tells us all we know
i was not meant for you
you were not meant for me

bring me down, bring me down sweetly
why'd i have to wait?
why'd i have to wait?

let me down, let me down gently
why'd you have to wait?
why'd you have to wait?
