Hot night, Spanish Harlem Full moon, creepin low I was standin at the bottom Your blue window I come for miles just to hold you Been so long baby, how've you been? Do you remember what I told you? Still the same it was back then Still the same it was back then And I hope it all comes easy, I hope it all feels right A dozen different candles line your bed tonight And I hope it's never over, I hope it never ends When I go I hope that you will want me back again and I Cause this world, it's all around us It's for real, it's not a game And the hate and greed surrounds us Theres love in my vein So hush now, do no more talkin My heart is heavy it's a ragged stone But all I want is you with me walkin Because I cant walk alone Because I cant walk alone And I hope that when we go they take us someplace good We can all be kings in common neighborhoods And I hope we live together, a daughter and a son And I hope they'll take me in When my work upon this earth is done I wish you loved in miles I wish that you would see That time says that love expires But not me, but not me Not me, not me Not me, not me Not me, not me
