Lyrics

(Every sunday I will go down to the bar
And leave him the guitar.)

You say you want me
I want another
Say you dream of me
Dream of your brother
Oh, the stars shine so suspiciously
For we three

You said when you were with me that nothing made you high
We drank all night together and you began to cry so recklessly
Baby, please, don't take my hope away from me

You say you want me
I want another, baby
You say you wish for me
Wish for your brother
Oh, the dice roll so deceptively
For we three

It was just another saturday
And ev'rything was in the key of a
And I lit a cigarette for your brother
And he turned and heard me say so desp'rately
"Baby, please, don't take my hope away from me."

You say you want me
I want another
You say you pray for me
Pray for your brother
Oh, the way that I see him is the way I see myself
So please stand back now and let time tell you
Oh, can't you see that time is the key that will unlock the destiny
Of we three?

Every night on sep'rate stars, before we go to sleep, we pray so breathlessly
Baby, please, don't take my hope away from me
