Lyrics

You wander around

On your own little cloud

When you don't see the why

Or the wherefore

Ooh, you walk out on me

When we both disagree

'cause to reason is not what you care for

I've heard it all a million times before

Take off your coat, my love, and close the door

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'

Don't stand in the pouring rain

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'

The night is long

Forget your foolish pride

Nothing's wrong

Now you're beside me again

You try to be smart

Then you take it apart

'cause it hurts when your ego is deflated

Um-m-um-um-um-um

You don't realize

That it's all compromise

And the problems are so over-rated

Good-bye means nothing when it's all for show

So why pretend you've somewhere else to go?

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'

Don't stand in the pouring rain

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'

The night is long

Forget your foolish pride

Nothing's wrong

Now you're beside me again

Oh, oh, oh

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'

Don't stand in the pouring rain

Don't sleep in the subway, darlin'

The night is long

Forget your foolish pride

Nothing's wrong

Now you're beside me again

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

(repeat chorus and fade out)
