Sleepless In Seattle Songtext

Sleepless In Seattle Songtext
Sleepless in Seattle, I couldn′t find a better name for this
If idle hands make devil's work, maybe we should build a church
Just so we can burn it down
′Cause every bar in this city reminds me of somebody, now
If I get drunk at 12th and Union, whose street will I go wanderin' down?
So, I don't wanna go home
I don′t wanna go home
Brian′s on a barstool, talkin' to his tall can again
All that acid in the 90s, he said it made a man outta him
All his L.A. friends got married, a wife, a house, a couple kids
He′s just trying to keep the dream alive, and if it dies
Then he and I just might die right along with it
So, I don't wanna go home
I don′t wanna go home
Where it's just half-finished skyscrapers beggin′ the question
"Does anyone care anymore?"
This city was built on the back of a spirit that I can't feel anymore
Maybe there's a new anger or a new seed
For some younger farmer to sow
But right now, it feels like last call on New Year′s Eve
And the bartender′s tellin' me to go
But I don′t want to go home
I don't want to go home
If idle hands make devil's work, maybe we should build a church
Just so we can burn it down
′Cause every bar in this city reminds me of somebody, now
If I get drunk at 12th and Union, whose street will I go wanderin' down?
So, I don't wanna go home
I don′t wanna go home
Brian′s on a barstool, talkin' to his tall can again
All that acid in the 90s, he said it made a man outta him
All his L.A. friends got married, a wife, a house, a couple kids
He′s just trying to keep the dream alive, and if it dies
Then he and I just might die right along with it
So, I don't wanna go home
I don′t wanna go home
Where it's just half-finished skyscrapers beggin′ the question
"Does anyone care anymore?"
This city was built on the back of a spirit that I can't feel anymore
Maybe there's a new anger or a new seed
For some younger farmer to sow
But right now, it feels like last call on New Year′s Eve
And the bartender′s tellin' me to go
But I don′t want to go home
I don't want to go home
