You restless son
You ribbon winner
Did everything so they could see
Did it turn out right?
You living with her?
Are you looking for a chance to leave?
Cairo come back home
Twenty-eight days of delirium
Three is a crowd and two is in love
But I can't sleep alone
Cairo, oh my soul
Twenty-eight nights and now I'm low
Can't get by and I can't let go
And I can't sleep alone
Did you try too hard?
Your mind too meager
The whispers follow when you leave
You read it wrong
A bold-face fever
You've stolen everything you believe
No face for feeding
Watch you grow thinner
No steady stream of human life
Now you're leeching blood
You red-mouthed sinner
Chasing anything into the night
Cairo come back home
Twenty-eight days of delirium
Three is a crowd and two is in love
But I can't sleep alone
Cairo, oh my soul
Twenty-eight nights and now I'm low
Can't get by and I can't let go
And I can't sleep alone
Cairo
Cairo
Cairo
Cairo
Cairo
Cairo come back home
Twenty-eight days of delirium
Three is a crowd and two is in love
But I can't sleep alone
Cairo, oh my soul
Twenty-eight nights and now I'm low
Can't get by and I can't let go
And I can't sleep alone
Cairo
Cairo
Cairo
Cairo
