[Verse 1]
So I let it happen again
I loved someone who's indifferent
That's why I can't sleep at night
That's why I keep sleeping in
So I started over again
I got back onto that medicine
That's why I keep sleeping in
I don't like when dreaming ends
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a pink light in my apartment
It comes mid-morning as a reminder
That at the right time, in the right surroundings
I will be lovely, but I can't help thinking
[Chorus]
That maybe if you stayed
For an hour or two
When the sun came up
When I last saw you
Maybe if you'd seen
The soft pink light
I wouldn't be
Alone tonight
[Verse 2]
So I'm living inside my mind
I keep retracing that storyline
Thinking, if I start again

[Pre-Chorus]
There's a pink light in my apartment
It comеs mid-morning as a reminder
That at the right time, in the right surroundings
I will be lovely, but I can't help thinking
[Bridge]
But I can't help thinking
But I can't help thinking
But I can't help thinking
But I can't help thinking
[Chorus]
Maybe if you stayed (But I can't help thinking)
For an hour or two (But I can't help thinking)
When the sun came up (But I can't help thinking)
When I last saw you (But I can't help thinking)
[Outro]
But there's a pink light in my apartment (Maybe if you'd seen)
It comes mid-morning as a reminder (The soft pink light)
That at the right time, in the right surroundings (I wouldn't be)
I will be lovely, but I can't help thinking (Alone)
Alone tonight

MUNA are friends of mine, and I had heard one version of this song before it got to what it ended up being. And I remember being floored by the pre-chorus bit—I thought it was so beautiful, so sad. I could see it all. I thought it was a really magical piece of songwriting. So having an opportunity t...
