[Verse 1]
I bring a paper to the cafe on the corner
I catch a movie in the afternoon
I spend an hour doing nothing that important
But nothing's what I'm in the mood to do
This peaceful image of a seen almost forgotten
Just touched the surface of my conscious mind
Of things I used to do before I knew you

[Chorus]
So don't come around here tonite
But that doesn't mean forever
I trust you to spare us a fight
And humour my endeavour
There was something about you to me
How easier love used to be
Well I just need to know that I'm all right
If you don't come around tonite

[Verse 2]
And so I wander through the workings of the city
Where every stranger has discovered me
With my desire, my isolation
Somehow I need to make the two agree
And then you vanish all my thoughts of independence
When you put your hands on me
And I feel these things you do
That I've grown used to

[Chorus]
So don't come around here tonight
But that doesn't mean forever
I trust you to spare us a fight
And humour my endeavour
'Cause there was something about you to me
How easier love used to be
Well I just need to know that I'm all right
If you don't come around tonight

[Bridge]
You say I'm the one you've been searching for
But for myself I would rather be more
Then someone who only aspires
To fulfil your every desire
The nights I've been mad, you are few
Now, all I am asking of you, is

[Chorus]
Just don't come around here tonight
But that doesn't mean forever
I trust you to spare us a fight
And humour my endeavour
There was something about you to me
How easier love used to be
Well I just need to know that I'm all right
If you don't come around
So don't come around here tonight
But that doesn't mean forever
I trust you to spare us a fight
And humour my endeavour
'Cause there was something about you to me
How easier love used to be
Well I just need to know that I'm all right
If you don't come around tonight
