i was running late for work
so i didn't change my shirt
and the evening's drinks
left a lingering taste in my mouth

and when i left, you were fast asleep
tangled in the sheets, and on the bus
i could have sworn it was all a dream
it didn't happen to me

and then i felt the scrapes
from a slippery subway grate
oh, how you laughed
at my complete lack of grace
but i could not recall a more perfect fall
'cause when i looked up into your eyes
it didn't hurt at all

and i thought, be still my heart
this could be a brand new start with you
and it will be clear
if i wake up and you're still here with me
in the morning

and i thought, be still my heart
this could be a brand new start with you
and it will be clear
if i wake up and you're still here with me
in the morning

be still my heart
this could be a brand new start with you
and it will be clear
if i wake up and you're still here with me
in the morning
