Lyrics
Kate works the night shift at a diner off Valentine
Saving nickels and dimes trying to buy her a better life
Picks up the phone. Hangs her apron behind the door
Says I've waited too long. You know I'm not waiting here anymore
I want to wrap you in my arms. Can't you slip away
Don't say anything 'til I can see the neon shine on your face
You know that little place down on the boulevard
tonight let's slip away and let me wrap you in my arms
As the moon at the window tells her it's time to go
She's still feeling that warm spark between them she has come to know
Walking back to her flat under grey silver skies along Valentine
She remembers the curve of his face and his smile when they kissed goodbye
I want to wrap you in my arms. Can't you slip away
Don't say anything 'til I can see the neon shine on your face
You know that little place down on the boulevard
tonight let's slip away and let me wrap you in my arms
