Lyrics

You don't know just
When to stop and when to go
City streets in the dead of winter
Stop your mind with dirty snow
Walk at night and touch your hand to
The golden lights and let them show
You the shadows disappearing
I'll smile and say I told you so

Baby - tell me why if you think you know why
People love when there's no tomorrow

And still not cry when it's time to go
And still not cry when it's time to go
And still not cry when it's time to go

The wall of your memory will echo your sorrow
The pictures of sadness are not what they seem
So hold out your smile take my hand and be happy
These pictures of sadness are not all they seem
Are you so old that you've no childhood
Is your time line so unreal
That all your sunsets come in the morning?
Baby tell me how do you feel?

Shelves of books in your mirror reflecting
The sidewalks & alleys that you've seen
Show colors change as the images fade in
My magical vanishing memory machine

Baby - tell me how if you think you know how
People love if there's no tomorrow
Do people love if there's no tomorrow

And still not cry when they have to go
And still not cry when they have to go
And still not cry when they have to go
