(shhhh) Rain on the window,
a late-night show
Table for one
where the dim lights glow
I watched the smoke
climb up to the roof
Searching the room
for a moment of truth Oh,
the city keeps beat to its own sweet drum
Waiting for the morning sun
(mhhh-hmm) Yeah, the bassline rolls while the story spins
That's where the melody begins
She wore a coat
of a faded green
Sipping her glass like a cinema queen
Two beats late
when she caught my eye
No words spoken as the night went by
Oh, the city keeps beat to its own sweet drum
Waiting for the morning sun
(yeah) Yeah, the bassline rolls while the story spins
That's where the melody begins
Just a beaty story
in the dark... (hmmm)
