|
[Verse 1] |
|
He'll need some time to get over this |
|
But a moment is all he can spare |
|
His buddies out there in the city lights |
|
And he is trying to care |
|
[Chorus] |
|
See him offering himself to the world |
|
Staring down from the fifty-sixth floor |
|
Yeah, I'll be happy just to catch him again |
|
We go out, we don't always come back |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
The night pressing in on his weary mind |
|
There's a half-eaten moon in the sky |
|
Nothing is calling him back to bed |
|
And no one is saying goodbye |
|
[Chorus] |
|
See him offering himself to the world |
|
Staring down from the fifty-sixth floor |
|
Yeah, I'll be happy just to catch him again |
|
We go out because we go back |
|
And back, and back, and back |
|
See him offering himself to the world |
|
Staring down from the fifty-sixth floor |
|
Yeah, and he's not happy, it's the weekend again |
|
We go out, we don't always come back |
|
See him offering himself to the world |
|
Staring down from the fifty-sixth floor |
|
Yeah, and I'll be happy just to catch him again |
|
We go out because we go back, we go back |
|
And back, and back, and back, and back |
|
And back, and back, and back |
|
See him offering himself to the world |
|
Staring down |
