Angels & Airwaves — Sirens

There’s a weakness in the window 
Place my footprints in the dark room 
There’s lonely voices like a scarecrow 
In the hallway like a lost ghost 
In the bedroom I see a shadow 
From the moon with light from a candle 
On a bed-frame lies a girl 
Her reflection in the mirror 

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
I like your eyes wide 
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
I’ve been knocking at your backdoor 
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
Nervous like a knife fight 
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
Be careful what you ask for 

I do this from time to time 
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
When I can never say the things I mean (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I like to think of you with me 

It’s a dark night on the West Coast 
Then a soft breeze as the sun rose 
Then the phone rang like a gunshot 
Like a siren on the beach rock 
There’s a message at the river 
A certain package here to the deliver 
When the day breaks after nightfall 
I will be there, you know I will 

Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
I like your eyes wide 
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
I’ve been knocking at your backdoor 
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
Nervous like a knife fight 
Ladada dadada dadada dadala dada 
Be careful what you ask for 

I do this from time to time 
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
When I can never say the things I mean (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I like to think of you with me (from time to time) 

I can hear you breathe, 
I’m feeling the shake 
And the sound of my heartbeat 
Can’t let go… 
Do you know 
I’m feeling the pain 
Of my first love?
I won’t let it go… 
Can’t let go 

I do this from time to time 
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I want to taste you as you breathe (from time to time) 

I do this from time to time 
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time) 
I do this from time to time 
Where I like to think of you with me (from time to time)
