Lyrics

Now, right now
Look at the place i' m in
When I think about things that I could have done
It's impossible for me tp pretend
But I see it now as the lights grow dim
And the world starts to close its eyes
I just wanted to say goodnight
Sweet suzanne
I hear the music playin'
But I no longer understand
Around the corner, down the street
I'ts got to be better than where I am
I see it all now, as the light grows dim
And the world starts to close its eyes
I just wanted to say goodnight
Sweet suzanne
I just wanted to say goodnight
Just wanted to see if everything was all right
Just wanted to say goodnight
Sweet suzanne
Time goes by
Oh, so quietly
Hazy days and memories
And in the end there was only me
Wouldn't have been, I ask sometimes
But I see myself inside this rhyme
Enjoyed what I had back then
Would I do it again?
Well, I see it now
As the lights grow dim
I just wanted to say goodnight
Sweet suzanne
I just wanted to say goodnight
I just wanted to see if everything's all right
Just wanted to say goodnight
Sweet suzanne
I just wanted to say goodnight
I just wanted to see if everything' s all right
I just wanted to say goodnight
Sweet suzanne
