Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every Sunday
I would go down to the bar
And leave him the guitar
[Verse 2]
You say you want me
I want another
Say you dream of me
Dream of your brother
Oh, the stars shine so suspiciously
For we three
[Verse 3]
You say when you were with me
That nothin' made you high
We drank all night together
And you began to cry so recklessly
Oh, baby, please
Don't take my hope away from me
[Verse 4]
You say you want me
I want another, baby
You say you wish for me
Wish for your brother
Oh, the dice roll so sadly
For we three
[Verse 5]
It was just another Saturday
And everything was in the key of A
And I lit a cigarette for your brother
And he turned and heard me say
So desperate, "Please, baby, please
Don't take my hope away from me"
[Verse 6]
You say you want me
I want another
You say you pray for me
Pray for your brother
Oh, the way that I see him
Is the way I see myself
So, please stand back now
And let time tell you
Can't you see
That time is the key
That'll unlock the destiny
Of we three?
[Verse 7]
Every night on separate stars
Before we go to sleep
We pray so breathlessly
Baby, please
Don't take my hope away from me
