Wish I could say it breaks my heart Like you did in the beginning Its not that we grew apart A nightingale no longer singing Its something I know you can't do Separate sex with emotion I sleep alone the sun comes up Your still clinging to that notion Every thing is slowing down River of no return Recognize my every sound There is nothing new to learn You'll never get my mind right Like two ships passing in the night In the night, in the night Want the same thing where we lay Otherwise mines a different way A different way from where I'm going Oh, its you again listen this isn't a reunion So sorry if I turn my head Yours is a familiar face But that don't make your place safe In my bed, my bed, my bed I never thought my memory Of what we had could be intruded But I couldn't let it be I needed it as much as you did Now its not hard to understand Why we just speak at night The only time I hold your hand Is to get the angle right Everything is slowing down River of no return You recognize my every sound There's nothing new to learn You'll never get my mind right Like two ships passing in the night In the night in the night Want the same thing where we lay Otherwise mine's a different way A different way from where I'm going Oh, its you again listen this isn't a reunion So sorry if I turn my head Yours is a familiar face But that don't make your place safe In my bed, my bed, my ba ba dee dee bed
