Lyrics The Loneliest Time – Carly Rae Jepsen feat. Rufus Wainwright
I’ve had one of those bad dreams
Where we’re standing on your street
I quit smoking those cigarettes
But I’m never getting over it
And you’re looking right through me
Just like Shakespeare wrote a tragedy
‘Bout our story never finished it
‘Cause our love we never finished it
I’m coming over tonight
Knock on your door just like before
I need that look in your eyes
‘Cause we’ve had the loneliest time
I’m thinking over the night
I could be yours just like before
Rewrite another try
‘Cause we’ve had the loneliest time
If you wanna try it, if you wanna try me
If you wanna try love
Baby leave the light on for me
If you wanna try it, if you wanna try me
If you wanna try love
I’ve had more of those bad dreams
You were ten feet in front of me
I went running but I couldn’t catch
Just the shadow of your silhouette
Then you spoke the words to me
When you left, I still need to unpack it
Let’s save sorry for another night
‘Cause this time love, we’re gonna get it right
I’m coming over tonight
Knock on your door just like before
I need that look in your eyes
‘Cause we’ve had the loneliest time
I’m thinking over the night
I could be yours just like before
Rewrite another try
‘Cause we’ve had the loneliest time
If you wanna try it, if you wanna try me
If you wanna try love
Baby leave the light on for me
If you wanna try it, if you wanna try me
If you wanna try love
Baby leave the light on for me
What happened was
We reached the moon
But lost in space I think we got there all too soon
But you know what
I’m coming back for you baby
I’m coming back for you
And in the morning
Sun hits the water
Is this nirvana
And in the morning
Sun hits the water
Is this nirvana
And in the morning
Sun hits the water
Is this nirvana…
