I've been the needle and the thread
Weaving figure eights
And circles round your head
I try to laugh but cry instead
Patiently wait to hear the words
You've never said
Fumbling through your dresser drawer
Forgot what I was looking for
Try to guide me
In the right direction
Making use of all this time
Keeping everything inside
Close my eyes
And listen to you cry
I'm lifting you up
I'm letting you down
I'm dancing 'till dawn
I'm fooling around
I'm not giving up
I'm making your love
This city's made us crazy
And we must get out
This is not goodbye she said
It is just time for me
To rest my head
She does not walk
She runs instead
Down these jagged streets
And into my bed
When I was
Fumbling through your dresser drawer
Forgot what I was looking for
Try to guide me
In the right direction
Making use of all this time
Keeping everything inside
Close my eyes
And listen to you cry
I'm lifting you up
I'm letting you down
I'm dancing 'till dawn
I'm fooling around
I'm not giving up
I'm making your love
This city's made us crazy
And we must get out
There's only so much
I can do for you
After all of the things
You put me through
I'm lifting you up
I'm letting you down
I'm dancing 'till dawn
I'm fooling around
I'm not giving up
I'm making your love
This city's made us crazy
And we must get out
I'm lifting you up
I'm letting you down
I'm dancing 'till dawn
I'm fooling around
I'm not giving up
I'm making your love
This city's made us crazy
And we must get out
I'm lifting you up
I'm letting you down
I'm dancing 'till dawn
I'm fooling around
I'm not giving up
I'm making your love
This city's made us crazy
And we must get out
