Song Lyrics
You're like sleep, take what I can get
But I've gotta make some sense of this, so here the fuck I sit
At 3 a.m., trying way too hard
To find the words to slow my sweet, addicted heart.
You're like sleep, I can't get near enough
And I pretend that I don't need you when I'm out doing stuff
Went so deep, a lucky young man's dream
And last time I tried this sober, I was seventeen.
And all that I needed was all that I had
It was good while it lasted
You let me kiss you on broadway in a black cadillac
It was good while it lasted
Last night I didn't sleep at all, I found another empty wall
And I couldn't get past it
And for a minute in the afternoon, I almost didn't think of you
It was good while it lasted.
It's more than real, a plastic universe
And I wanna know your secrets, even when it hurts
You speak so soft, but there's something dark in there
And I think I'll ask for more than just a love affair.
You're like sleep, and the nights are adding up
Well, I wish I still smoked cigarettes and acted tough.
And all that I had was all that I needed
It was good while it lasted
With your head on my shoulder, my soldiers retreated
It was good while it lasted
A mattress on the palace floor and a light I'd never seen before
And I couldn't get past it
And for a little while this afternoon, I dreamed that I was in your room
And it was good while it lasted.
Baby, let me learn from you
How'd you get that shade of blue?
What's it like from where you stand?
Let me hold your steady hand.
And all that I wanted was all that I had
And it was good while it lasted
Now I feel like a boy who got caught being bad
And it was good while it lasted.
That night you came and stayed with me, painted on my memory
I'll never get past it
I got to hold a piece of you in the evening on the avenue
It was good while it lasted.
