When the sun goes down
I open up my window for hours and I watch
Every passing stranger
Every early shadow, I wonder if it's you
Always I'm dreaming and recklessly scheming
How to get you back in my life
I want you now
And I'm prepared to take chances
I've told you how
I won't take no for an answer
Every empty evening
The sailors sit downstairs, drinking 'til they fight
Shout and raucous laughter
Sounds of breaking glass shatters through the night
The men from the circus are juggling with knives
The acrobats fall just like you
I want you now
And I'm prepared to take chances
I've told you how
I won't take no for an answer
