don't come around tonight



I bring a paper

To the cafe on the corner

I catch a movie in the afternoon

I spend an hour

Doing nothing that important

But nothing's what i'm in the mood to do



This peaceful image

Of a seen almost forgotten

Just touched the surface

Of my conscious mind

Of things i used to do

Before i knew you



Chorus:

So don't come around here tonite

But that doesn't mean forever

I trust you to spare us a fight

And humour my endeavour

There was something about you to me

How easier love used to be

Well i just need to know

That i'm all right

If you don't come around tonite



And so i wander

Through the workings of the city

Where every stranger has discovered me

With my desire, my isolation

Somehow i have to make the two agree



And then you vanish

All my thoughts and independance

When you put your hands on me

And i feel these things you do

That i've grown used to



(chorus)



You say i'm the one

You've been searching for

But for myself i would rather be more

Then someone who only aspires

To forfeit your every desire

And nights i've been mad, you are few

Now, all i am asking of you, is



(chorus) (repeat)
