the sun shines much brighter from the twelfth floor

we don’t worry about the payroll anymore

or about the loose change we’ve been saving

don’t you know this is the joy of living


when the night falls in the city, would you still know where to find me

tell me, will you miss me when I’m gone

promise, you’ll never let the music stop

tell me, everything will be okay

tell me, you’ll forget the things I say


let’s quit our jobs and sell the tv

we don’t need to care about who sees, believe me

or about the words that they’ve been saying

honey, don’t you know that I’ve been praying, you will stay


when your eyes look up and see me, I can’t help my heart from breaking

tell me, will you miss me when I’m gone

promise, you’ll never let the music stop

tell me, everything will be okay

tell me, you’ll forget the things I say


tell me, will you miss me when I’m gone

promise, you’ll never let the music stop

tell me, everything will be okay

tell me, you’ll forget the things I say
