lyrics

This time was different
While she was fixin’ up to go
He felt the wound that would become
His broken heart

Was it midnight?
Or just a little after nine?
With every move she made
The clocks fell out of time

When did this happen?
This beloved apathy
This passing kiss
This smile from across the room

Take off those shoes, he said
Let me have your coat and hat
Let us talk for a while
And try to find the way

To a brand new day

Why don’t we fall in love again?
Why don’t we fall in love?

Maybe you could stay home tonight
Laying back in my arms, i’ll hold you tight
Can't we just make it sweet tonight?
Like it was when we first met?

Tell me how is your appetite?
Let me cook you some dinner, i’ll make it nice
Don’t you just wanna’ be with me?
Like it was when we first met?

She listened to his words
Then she smiled, she smiled
She smiled

Maybe you could stay home tonight
Laying back in my arms, i’ll hold you tight
Can't we just make it sweet tonight?
Like it was when we first met?

Tell me how is your appetite?
Let me cook you some dinner, i’ll make it nice
Don’t you just wanna’ be with me?
Like it was when we first met?

I, I, I
I
I fell in love
I
Oh my baby wait
I
Stay, won't you stay?
Stay around
I, I, I, oh yeah
Oh my
Oh my baby wait
