The Nights We Saved Lyrics

Falling leaves

Brown, yellow and green

Another season's come for me

A change I haven't seen

Cold rain

Wash away my own terrain

Carry me to where I'd stay

'Till I'm old and gray

"But you'll see," you say

"The time's not right for me"

Well there's no guarantee

The time's not right for me either, baby

Please don't tell me again to wait

I can't wait

'Till we can spend together

The nights we saved

All the nights we saved

Like me, you see the opportunity

For some romantic victory

For warm, late night TV

And like you, I say I've got so much to do

To wait around, to play the fool

Who'll dare to break the rules?

But I find that there's no peace of mind

And still that piece of my mind

Says all I leave behind don't mean nothin'

So don't give me that, don't ask me to wait

You know I can't wait

'Till we can spend together

The nights we saved

All the nights we saved
