I was running late for work
So I didn't change my shirt
The evening's drinks left a lingering taste in my mouth
And when I left you were fast asleep
Tangled in the sheets
And on the bus I could have sworn
It was all a dream
And it didn't happen to meAnd then I felt the scrapes
From the slippery subway grate
Oh, how you laughed
At my complete lack of grace
But I could not recall
A more perfect fall
'Cause when I looked up into your eyes
It didn't hurt at allAnd I thought, be still my heart
This could be a brand new start with you
And it will be clear
If I wake up and you're still here
With me in the morningAnd I thought, be still my heart
This could be a brand new start with you
And it will be clear
If I wake up and you're still here
With me in the morning
Be still my heart
This could be a brand new start with you
And it will be clear
If I wake up and you're still here
With me in the morning
