Wish I could say it breaks my heart 
Like you did in the beginning 
It's not that we grew apart 
A nightingale no longer singing 

It's something I know you can't do 
Separate sex with emotion 
I sleep alone, the sun comes up 
You're still clinging to that notion 

Everything is slowing down 
River of no return 
Recognize my every sound 
There is nothing new to learn 

You'll never get my mind right 
Like two ships passing in the night 
In the night, in the night 
Want the same thing when we lay 
Otherwise mine's a different way 
A different way from where I'm going 
Oh, it's you again listen this isn't a reunion 
So sorry if I turn my head 
Yours is a familiar face 
But that don't make your place safe 
In my bed, my bed, my bed 

I never thought my memory 
Of what we had could be intruded 
But I couldn't let it be 
I needed it as much as you did 

Now it's not hard to understand 
Why we just speak at night 
The only time I hold your hand 
Is to get the angle right 

Everything is slowing down 
River of no return 
You recognize my every sound 
There's nothing new to learn 

You'll never get my mind right 
Like two ships passing in the night 
In the night, in the night 
Want the same thing when we lay 
Otherwise mine's a different way 
A different way from where I'm going 
Oh, it's you again, listen this isn't a reunion 
So sorry if I turn my head 
Yours is a familiar face 
But that don't make your place safe 
In my bed, my bed, my ba ba dee dee bed
