i want my girl backi want my baby in my arms
to sound all five alarms
to the world
i want my girl
to come outside and play
and illuminate the way
and it's all in the dark
without looking
i've seen lights, i've seen sparks
without looking
you've been schooled in the heart
and i'm a rookie
but as long as you're out there somewhere
i've got a right to dream
i want my world back
i want the stupor of what seems
to elevate and beam me
to my girl
in a perfect world
where eyes aren't half as blind
and it's evening all the time
