OMG, this song is incredible, and Michael is simply perfect. I'm in tears, this song reminds me of my every mistake, what I've had done, and what I've never forgiven to myself.
Somewhere in a quiet little nook of this city, Slipping into something That's a little less like a disguise. You are not alone here. Open up your eyes. We cannot sleep. We'll just hold our breath tonight. Two strangers. Hope don't matter. It don't matter. Time will pulse on And tomorrow will come and go. Or at least I've been told so. Two strangers. Lost and lonely, Only nightcap strange strangers. Letting go of a dream. Waking up from a dream. Waking up from a half-remembered mid-November dream. And somewhere out in Brooklyn You're alone and you're drinking, Soaking up the feeling That you never felt nothing at all. Whiskey makes you brood, But that's your kind of mood. Oh, we cannot sleep. We'll just hold our breath tonight. Two strangers. Hope don't matter. It don't matter. Time will pulse on And tomorrow will come and go. We'll be trudging through the snow. Two strangers. Lost and lonely, Only nightcap strange strangers. Letting go of a dream. Waking up from a dream. La da da da da da. And then it's over. Just another mistake done over. There's no evidence here, No mark or picture frame Just a name In a cell phone, Stuck in my head, Smelling boy in my empty twin bed Or maybe I'm just conjuring some romance I read. This was not so magical. You didn't impress me. Not at all. No. No. Not even a little bit. You were something I wanted to try, And we were happy, For a while. Just like in a dream one late night, Tumbling toward winter In a perfect autumn luminescent light, You held me tight. That was all I ever could have asked for. We'll just hold our breath tonight. Two strangers. Two strangers. We cannot sleep. We'll just hold our breath tonight. Two strangers. Hope don't matter. It don’t matter. It don't matter. Oh, oh... Lost and lonely, Only nightcap strangers, Lost and lonely, Only nightcap strange strangers. La da da di da da. La da da di da da. La da da di da da da da da da da da da da.
Always a gift to here music from you especially when Michael sings
I desperately wish that he got the recognition he deserves

He is incredible
Somewhere in a quiet little nook of this city,
Slipping into something
That's a little less like a disguise.
You are not alone here.
Open up your eyes.
We cannot sleep.
We'll just hold our breath tonight.
Two strangers.
Hope don't matter.
It don't matter.
Time will pulse on
And tomorrow will come and go.
Or at least I've been told so.
Two strangers.
Lost and lonely,
Only nightcap strange strangers.
Letting go of a dream.
Waking up from a dream.
Waking up from a half-remembered mid-November dream.
And somewhere out in Brooklyn
You're alone and you're drinking,
Soaking up the feeling
That you never felt nothing at all.
Whiskey makes you brood,
But that's your kind of mood.
Oh, we cannot sleep.
We'll just hold our breath tonight.
Two strangers.
Hope don't matter.
It don't matter.
Time will pulse on
And tomorrow will come and go.
We'll be trudging through the snow.
Two strangers.
Lost and lonely,
Only nightcap strange strangers.
Letting go of a dream.
Waking up from a dream.
La da da da da da.
And then it's over.
Just another mistake done over.
There's no evidence here,
No mark or picture frame
Just a name
In a cell phone,
Stuck in my head,
Smelling boy in my empty twin bed
Or maybe I'm just conjuring some romance I read.
This was not so magical.
You didn't impress me.
Not at all.
No.
No.
Not even a little bit.
You were something I wanted to try,
And we were happy,
For a while.
Just like in a dream one late night,
Tumbling toward winter
In a perfect autumn luminescent light,
You held me tight.
That was all I ever could have asked for.
We'll just hold our breath tonight.
Two strangers.
Two strangers.
We cannot sleep.
We'll just hold our breath tonight.
Two strangers.
Hope don't matter.
It don’t matter.
It don't matter.
Oh, oh...
Lost and lonely,
Only nightcap strangers,
Lost and lonely,
Only nightcap strange strangers.
La da da di da da.
La da da di da da.
La da da di da da da da da da da da da da.
He's incredible voice
Im used to the trio version but jeez Michael is perfect for the solo
What happened to the "Just like in a dream" part? Was it cut for the solo version?
yeah they sometimes cut that from the solo version which I also miss. :/
