You thought I had everything, I had no one But an empty bottle and a soft pack of cigarettes I was making my way through this town Like a bat out of hell, a sucker with no regrets And I wish I could see you but I know it's late You've got other places you can be But selfishly I want you here with me Old selfish me I'm just looking for a place to sleep I wish you could see me now, how things turned out I'm the person I always thought I could be I thought I could see the clouds with a foaming mouth And make it out the other side peacefully I don't talk in those tongues, I don't speak to the dead I don't do all those things that got in your head I wish people well and go on my way And wonder if things would be different if you had stayed But selfishly I want you here with me Old selfish me I'm just looking for a place to sleep Old selfish me I want you here with me (I want you here with me, I want you here with me) Old selfish me I'm just looking for a place to sleep (I want you here with me, I want you here with me) Old selfish me I want you here with me (I want you here with me, I want you here with me) Old selfish me I'm just looking for a place to sleep, to sleep (I want you here with me, I want you here with me)
