Slow dancing on the boulevard
in the quiet moments
while the city's still dark
Sleepwalking through the summer rain
and in the tired spaces
you could hear her name
When she was warm and tender and you
held her arms around you
there was nothing
but her love and affection
she was crazy for you
now she's part of something that you lost
[chorus]
and for all you know
this could be the difference
between what you need
and what you wanna be
yeah, what you wanna be
Nights swimming in her diamond dress
making small circles
move across the surface
Stand watching from the steady shore
feeling wide open
and waiting for
Something warm and tender
now she's moving further from you
there was nothing that could
make it easy on you
every step you take reminds you
that she's walking on
[chorus]
Every word you never said
echoes down your empty hallway
and everything that was your world
just came down
Day breaking on the boulevard
feel the sun warming up
your second hand heart
light swimming across your face
and you think
maybe someday, yeah
maybe someday
[chorus]
Yeah, for all you know
for all you know
and for all that you know
this is what you wanna be
girl, what you wanna be
