|
When the sun goes down |
|
I open up my window for hours and I watch |
|
Every passing stranger |
|
Every early shadow, I wonder if it's you |
|
Always I'm dreaming, and recklessly scheming |
|
How to get you back in my life |
|
I want you now |
|
And I'm prepared to take chances |
|
I've told you how |
|
I won't take no for an answer |
|
Every empty evening |
|
The sailors sit downstairs, drinking 'til they fight |
|
Shout and raucous laughter |
|
Sounds of breaking glass shatter through the night |
|
The men from the circus are juggling with knives |
|
The acrobats fall just like you |
|
I want you now |
|
And I'm prepared to take chances |
|
I've told you how |
|
I won't take no for an answer |
|
I won't take no for an answer |
|
Now you're miles away |
|
'Cross the sea, out of reach, unheard |
|
I've cried to you for help |
|
But the wind blows away all my words |
|
You sat there once beside me |
|
Where the actors play, you kissed me every night |
|
When you left you promised |
|
You'd soon be back to stay, and it would be alright |
|
Now I'm abandoned, my letters unanswered |
|
Got to get you back in my life |
|
I want you now (I want you now) |
|
And I'm prepared to take chances |
|
I've told you how (I've told you how) |
|
I won't take no for an answer |
|
I want you now (I want you now) |
|
And I'm prepared to take chances |
|
I've told you how (I've told you how) |
|
I won't take no for an answer |
