Intro:
Verse 1:
Leaving on the subway for your home last night
I was paying for the ride with my money
Standing in the station, I was losing my patience and my mind
All the liquor and the women and the time in between
And the narcotic haze I d been feeling
Shoulda never come between us but I m so glad you re back in my life
Chorus:
When I m watching as the lights of the city fade
Sitting by the window on the seat of the train
Saddened with the burden of a guessing game
()
Which one is yours ?
Just leave the lights off then next time I m turning em on
Verse 2:
Well I was fumbling for a quarter, hoping it wasn t over
I was probably running out of money
Wasn t over then and I guess that it ain t over now
Well I hit the city I was dead on my feet
Lying in your arms with my head on the street
Tearing up my wallet and the bars where we used to meet
Chorus:
When I m watching as the lights of the city fade
Sitting by the window on the seat of the train
Saddened with the burden of a guessing game
()
Which one is yours ?
Just leave the lights off then next time I m turning em on
Instrumantal: (Chorus)

Verse 3:
Leaving on the subway for your home last night
I was paying for the ride with my money
Standing in the station, I was losing my patience and my mind
All the liquor and the women and the time in between
And the drug haze I d been feeling
Shoulda never come between us but I m so glad you re back in your life
Chorus:
When I m watching as the lights of the city fade
Sitting by the window on the seat of the train
Saddened with the burden of a guessing game
()
Which one is yours ?
Just leave the lights off then next time I m turning em on
Just leave the lights off then next time I m turning em on
