I can't take you home with me
Too bad 'cause it's so hard to be
In love with no place to go.
You've got no home except this place you come
Surviving selling drugs doesn't seem so fun
But you're still so carefree.

In the cold dark night we can hide.
On the fire escape while the junkies inside
Worry about their next fix.
Chewing gum and holding hands
My friends would never understand
Why I fell for you...

Such a pretty mess, you ripped the dress
The dress you borrowed
Drowning in your sorrows outside the club.

In the cold dark night we can hide.
On the fire escape while the junkies inside
Worry about their next fix.
Chewing gum and holding hands
My friends would never understand
Why I fell for you...

Innocent and playful, you remind me
Of a little child
And all I ask is that you, you find me
Once in a while

Once in a while...
