The Room Where It's Always Night

Clare Means


In the room where it's always night
You can easily sleep 'til noon
And no matter what time you sleep until
It holds you like a tomb
And there is a small window that looks
Onto a thin dark alleyway
And you can watch and watch
But nothing will change
In the place where that laundry hangs

It's in this room where I dream
In a feverish sleep
It's in this room where I dream of you

It's in this room where I dreamed of you
Thousands of miles away
Holding your new woman
And rolling around in bed
And I could know what time it is there
If I could know what time it is here
But in the room where it's always night
The sun doesn't seem to care

It's in this room where I dream
In a feverish sleep
It's in this room where I dream of you
Where I dream of you
Where I dream of you
