we were walkin downtown
[kita berjalan di pusat kota]
my favorite part of town
[bagian kota favoritku]

through the night
[meliwati malam]
we were waiting
[kita menunggu]
for a sign
[sebuah tanda]
maybe rendered in the darkened sky
[mungkin terlihat di langit yang gelap]

drawn by
[ditarik oleh]
imaginary lines
[garis-garis imajiner]
connecting radiant points of light
[yang menghubungkan titik-titik cahaya yang bersinar]
[please don't go]
[jangan pergi]

cuz you showed up
[karena kau muncul]
with your hair down
[dengan rambutmu terurai]
i might not sleep tonight
[aku mungkin tidak bisa tidur malam ini]

we were walkin downtown
[kita berjalan di pusat kota]
my favorite part of town
[bagian kota favoritku]

lift your gaze
[angkat pandanganmu]
from the pavement
[dari trotoar]
from the streets
[dari jalan-jalan]
that we've crossed a thousand times before
[yang telah kita lalui ribuan kali sebelumnya]

dry your eyes
[keringkan air matamu]
there are birds singing on lamp posts
[ada burung-burung bernyanyi di tiang lampu]
they don't know what all your crying's for
[mereka tidak tahu untuk apa semua tangisanmu]
[please don't go]
[jangan pergi]

and i'm sure
[danku yakin]
that i've not seen
[bahwa aku belum pernah melihat]
the christmas lights this bright before
[lampu natal secerah ini sebelumnya]

we were walking downtown
[kita berjalan di pusat kota]
my favorite part of town
[bagian kota favoritku]
[walking downtown]
[berjalan di pusat kota]
