There's a message at the river
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I can hear you breathe, I'm feeling the shake
In the bedroom I see a shadow
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
I'm knocking at your backdoor
Nervous like a knife fight
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I like your eyes wide
Where I like to think of you with me
When the day breaks after nightfall
I do this from time to time
I do this from time to time
There's lonely voices like a scarecrow
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
From the moon with light from a candle
I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
Then the phone rang like a gunshot
I do this from time to time
Like a siren on the beach rock
I do this from time to time
A certain package here to deliver
Nervous like a knife fight
I do this from time to time
Her reflection in the mirror
I let it go, can't let go
Do you know, I'm feeling the pain of my first love?
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Be careful what you ask for
And the sound of my heartbeat, can't let go
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
Where I can never say the things I mean
I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
I do this from time to time
Then a soft breeze as the sun rose
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
I will be there, you know I will
I like your eyes wide
I'm knocking at your backdoor
I do this from time to time
Be careful what you ask for
Where I wanna taste you as you breathe
Where I like to think of you with me
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
Where I can never say the things I mean
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean
I do this from time to time
I do this from time to time
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada
I do this from time to time
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean
It's a dark night on the West Coast
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
Where I can never wake from a bad dream
I do this from time to time
I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep
In the hallway like a lost ghost
On a bed frame lies a girl
