Does anyone have the time to bring me down?

And can I sleep all night long

To the drums of the city rain?Just make it up

′Cause I'm awake all night long

To the drums of the city rain

And brother, if you have the chance to pick me up

And can I sleep on your couch

To the pound of the ache and pain?

Oh, in my head

′Cause I'm awake all night long

To the drums of the city rain

The lights we chase

The nights we steal

The things that we take to make us feel this (to the drums of the city rain)

I can't go back

I don′t think I will

I won′t sleep tonight as long as I still ('cause I′m awake all night long)

Hear the drums of the city rain

Does anyone have the guts to shut me up?

'Cause I believe that every night

There′s a chance we can walk away

So hold on tight

Because I won't wait too long

In the drums of the beating rain

′Cause the nights don't last

And we leave alone

Will you drive me back?

Can you take me home? (To the drums of the city rain)

The lights we chase

The nights we steal

The things that we take

To make us feel this (to the drums of the city rain)

I can't go back

I don′t think I will

I won′t sleep tonight as long as I still ('cause I′m awake all night long)

Hear the drums of the city rain

Faces I don't know

I am tired in the glow

Of the freezing club (all night long)

Keep me breathing

Don′t make the lights come back

Can you take me home?

We all need this (all night long)

When we leave alone

Remember when you and I would make things up?

So many nights, just take me down

To the place we can hear them play

I miss that sound

'Cause now we don′t sing so loud

To the drums of the city rain

The lights we chase

The nights we steal

The things that we take

To make us feel this (to the drums of the city rain)

I can't go back

I don't think I will

I won′t sleep tonight as long as I still (′cause I'm awake all night long)

Hear the drums of the city rain

Like strangers laugh

And like subways feel

Things I′m trying to break

Oh, just wait until this (to the drums of the city rain)

Is all we have to keep us ill

I won't breathe tonight as long as I still (′cause I'm awake all night long)

Hear the drums of the city rain
