Sirens

There's a weakness, at the window
Place my footprints, in the 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

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I'd like your eyes wide
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I've been knocking at your backdoor
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
The earth is like a night fire
Ladada 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 (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to think of you with 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 walk
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

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I'd like your eyes wide
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I've been knocking at your backdoor
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
The earth is like a night fire
Ladada 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 (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to think of you with me (from time to time)

I can hear you breathe,
I'm feeling the shake
And the sound of my heartbeat
I let go...
Do you know?
I'm feeling the pain
Of my first love
I let it go... can't let go
I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I want to taste you as you breathe (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to think of you with me
(from time to time)
