sleepin' tight |
|
Well
he went west to find his fortune |
She
went east to find a thrill |
He
laid drunk beside the ocean |
and
she laid down with a bottle of pills |
When
he woke up the sky was fallin' |
And
she woke up in a dirty hotel |
He
bummed a dime from an old beach cleaner |
And
she thanked a stranger for paying her well |
Silent
night holy night |
Three
thousand miles and the bow burned bright |
Love
so wrong love so right |
All
you lovers out there |
I
hope you're sleepin' tight |
|
Well
he called a friend in San Francisco |
And
she took a train to Baltimore |
He
put a hole in his arm that evening |
And
she put a fist through her mother's door |
Well
he told himself that he cared for no-one |
And
she told her mama to leave her alone |
He
turned blue as he started talkin' |
And
she picked up the telephone |
Silent
night holy night |
Three
thousand miles and the flame burned bright |
Love
so wrong love so right |
All
you lovers out there... |
I
hope you're sleepin' tight |
|
There
was a plane from San Francisco |
And
there was a plane from Baltimore |
Routine
flights from two big cities |
flown
a thousand times before |
I
turned on my television |
It
seems there was a crash somewhere |
Two
planes comin' across the country |
have
collided in the air |
Sileny
night holy night |
Three
thousdand miles and the fire burns bright |
Love
so wrong love so right |
All
you lovers out there... |
I
hope you're sleepin' tight |
All
you lovers out there... |
I
hope you're sleepin' tight |
