Sometimes I come home,

I don't expect too much

The lights are off now

It's only two



How I wish my breath

It didn't hurt so much

Then you'd be up babe

It's only two



Why don't you sleep?

You look as though you need it

The barricades and reasons

They mean nothing to me

Now they mean nothing to me



Well all my friends they laughed,

They laughed at all my jokes

I got one more story,

It's only two



How I wish my tough

Could erase the past

They you'd be up babe

It's only two



Why don't you drink

You look as though you need one

The barricades and reasons

They mean nothing to me,

No, they mean nothing to me



If these were different times

Then you'd be up,

And we'd trade stories

It's only two



Why don't we pretend?

I's all we have between us

The barricades and reasons

They mean nothing to me, now

Why don't you sleep?

You look as though we need it

The barricades and reasons

They mean nothing to me,

Now they mean nothing to me
