Did you sleep last night
And do you remember dreams?
Do I ever cross your mind
And do you ever think of me?
When you think about your life
Are there things you would reverse?
I still remember holding you
Just out of sight of her
In the deep, dark parking lot
Pressed up against my car
With your hands around my neck
I felt the pounding of your heart
And the summer night was giving in
To the lure of autumn's sway
I can't seem to forget that night
Or how I heard you say
That I'd just die
If you ever took your love away
Oh, and I'd just die
If you ever took your love away
Would you miss me if I was gone
And all the simple things were lost?
Would you ever wait on me to say
Oh, that I'd just die
If you ever took your love away
And I can still recall the hour
When you first let down your walls
I thought I might've died right there
Floating up above it all
But it scared you, love, to need someone
So you killed it all instead
But in the mist up on Mulholland
I could've sworn I heard you say
That I'd just die
If you ever took your love away
Oh, and I would just die
If you ever took your love away
Did you miss me when I was gone
And the simple things we lost?
I was aching to hear you say
Oh, that I'd just die
If you ever took your love away
That I'd just die
If you ever took your love away
Yes, and I would just die
If you ever took your love away
Did you miss me when I was gone
And the simple things we lost?
I was aching to hear you say
Oh, that I'd just die
If you ever took your love away
And did you miss me when I'm gone?
And the simple things we used to rely on?
Who came to wipe your tears away?
Who came to bring back your dignity, baby?
And who came to drive you around this town
Like I used to drive you all around with the radio on
Through the mist on Mulholland
