Careful now, watch the sound,

Tear her down piece by piece. 

A melody makes a scene, but it's all inside her.

You can wear your heart on your sleeve,

Expose it to the world,

That you want to leave.



I don't want to know

About your midnight escapades

Or all the names of friends you've made.

I don't want to know

About all your daring mistakes

Or the chance you didn't take.

The chance you didn't take



So . . . 

When the time is right

Our minds will meet again on common ground.

Just like we dreamed, just liked we'd hoped,

Just like we talked about.

So you can call the shots from high towers

Send a telegram that you'll never be returned



And I don't want to know

About your midnight escapades

Or all the names of friends you've made

And I don't want to know

About all your daring mistakes

Or the chance you didn't take

The chance you didn't take



Careful now, watch the sound,

Tear her down piece by piece. 

A melody makes a scene, but it's all inside her.

Careful now, watch the sound,

Tear her down piece by piece.

A melody makes a scene but it's all inside her

I don't want to know

About your midnight escapades

Or all the names of friends you've made

And I don't want to know

About all your daring mistakes

Or the chance you didn't take

The chance you didn't take
