I come to see you in the market Where the buyers buy and sell their wares I want to reach into your apron Take your hands and save you from this fate Like to invite you to my lighthouse Show you boats and woo you like the sailors do But I can only see you in the market place With a little ring I'll probably never bring to you We'd watch the early morning street cleaners cleaning streets With eyes wide awake until the vampires hit their sheets and We'd find a way to turn the hours into weeks And then we'd say whatever lovers say Want to impress you with my palace When I make money I'll buy a little place for two But I just rent a bedsit here in Paris Could it be good for a prince like you We'd watch the early morning street cleaners cleaning streets With eyes wide awake until the vampires hit their sheets and We'd find a way to turn the hours into weeks And then we'd say whatever lovers say We'd live a longer life than candles that everybody buys At local discount stores We'd watch the early morning street cleaners cleaning streets With eyes wide awake until the vampires hit their sheets and We'd find a way to turn the hours into weeks And then we'd say whatever lovers say
