Open Til Midnight

She needed shelter from the rain
She saw it on the sign
It said 'We're open till midnight'
(Open till midnight)I'm sorry by the way
I came here just the other day
And you look so familiar
(Look so familiar)And maybe you and I can have a drink
And start the night with a friendly conversation
(You know)Can you and I be truthful now?
What you runnin' away from?
And then you numb the pain
To make it through somehow
What you runnin' away from?
What you runnin' away from?She woke up at 4 A.M.
To smoke a cigarette again
And she stood in the doorway
(Stood in the doorway)She said I love to watch you sleep
Then hear the secrets that you keep
And remember what my father told me
(Told me)He said stay strong and don't forget to call
But don't ever come back at allCan you and I be truthful now?
What you runnin' away from?
And then you numb the pain
To make it through somehow
What you runnin' away from?
What you runnin' away from?Things don't turn out quite the way we planned, didn't you even try
When you knew something steered you wrong again?When did you decide
You don't belong here, you don't belong?
(No)Can you and I be truthful now?
What you runnin' away from?
And then you numb the pain
To make it through somehow
What you runnin' away from?
(What you runnin' away from?)Can you and I be truthful now?
What you runnin' away from?
(What you runnin' away from?)
And then you numb the pain
To make it through somehow
What you runnin' away from?
(What you runnin' away from?)I'm just a runaway, I seek the end you follow
I cannot think today
(What you runnin' away from?)I'm just a runaway, I seek the end you follow
I cannot think today
I'm just a empty shell
