Dying on a bed of roses in the middle of the night Woke up in a cold, dark basement looking through candlelights Up all night, silly kid come crashing down (just one more taker) Like a ghost of a thousand miles crawling over me Here's to falling off the world's dark side Drifted it alone on a morning's tide Riding on an all-night train through a crystal gate When the moonlight shines a path for a brighter day When the ballrooms are all banging and the evening is so still Could you see it in your heart to let me in? Did he hand you the reigns of the morning news? He lulled you asleep 'til the Aussie cat mews When the leaves from the trees come crashing down (don't time pass slowly) When the seasons don't change, they're spinning around Here's to falling off the world's dark side Drifted it alone on a morning's tide Riding on an all-night train through a crystal gate When the moonlight shines a path for a brighter day When the ballrooms are all banging and the evening is so still Could you see it in your heart to let me in? Let me in
