You write your midnight manifestos
While the rest of us sleep
They'll be gone before the morning
Like midnight lovers tend to be
Pages full of memories, that you'll soon forget
Like the time that I first saw you
Wondered if you'd ever let
Let me, let me love you
Let me, let me love you
When you wake up in the morning
Find that happiness is gone
I hope you hop into that Honda
Drive it right across the lawn
Come find me
Let me love you
Left your pretense by the doorway
And your sundress in the hall
When you came into my bedroom
You smelled like love and alcohol
Let me, let me love you
Let me, let me love you
And I thought I heard you say
Tha you were gonna love me forever
But I could see it in your face
That you could never stay
And if all love takes is repeated pain
I'll turn that switch on off inside my brain
And if all you want is whispered words
I'll scream it in your ear, make sure you've heard
And when your midnight manifestos
Turn to daylight debauchery
I hope the peace of mind you came for
Finds its way on back to me
Come back to me, and let me love you
Come back to me, like you're supposed to
Come back to me, and let me love you
Come back to me, like you're supposed to
Like you want to
