Change the locks on the door
Put out the light in the hall
I do not live anymore
Put the world in a box
Turn the sign to the street
Aim for where the horizon
And blue skies meet
But all I know is
I'm not ready yet
For the light to dim
Got a suitcase, got regrets
But I'm hopeful yet
I've been a gifted thief
Stole everything for the cause
But I never had fingers
As light as yours
So wake up pretty girl
See the hope in small things
Disappointment can wear you thin
But all I know is
I'm not ready yet
For the light to dim
Got a suitcase, got regrets
But I'm hopeful yet
So I'll raise this glass of wine
And I'll say your name
So let's be killers, babe
Make the great escape
From all the bitter words
From every crowded street
And empty bar
It's Christmas 
DayBrooklyn in the rain
But I am safe inside
An a better world
Of hope and memory
Drunk on velvet wine
Deal your cards and hope
That I can play
A better hand this time
