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
