I fell from the right side into the dark
I did time with the Bullet Boys and I thought that really smart Then you came to me with that smile on your face Light's in your eyes and no sense of disgrace Heartbreaker, I felt for you so Soul taker, now everybody knows Nobody knew it quite as well While with you was a heartache, without you is a hell If I thought of anyone, I thought of myself I stood crying with my fingers high, I didn't need nobody else Then you took me down with a flash and a grin Showed me what it's all about and flew me back on in You can feel cold when you're getting old, you can feel tall when you're small Would you think twice when a summer night's gonna run for you to call If it hits you like a thunderbolt right between the eyes You don't know what is happening, you just feel surprised |

Saw you at the corner of me eye on second day
Wondered what I'd done wrong but I stayed there anyway Saw you in the classroom and I saw you in the street Knew your name and knew your face and landed on me feet Oh, we was dancing! Oh, was romancing! Oh, we was dancing! Oh, couldn't chance it You were going out with someone I called me best friend Tried to look him in the eye, it's useless to pretend Saw you in the classroom and I saw you in the street Knew your name and knew your face and landed on me feet |

Watcha gonna tell me if you're not growing old?
Think about the love that's lost when I'm all alone Give a little thought to all the times that we had Can't you see what you're doing to me? Don't you know it makes me really sad? Watcha gonna tell me when the night fades away? Where you gonna run to in the cold light of day? Think about it now cause it might get you, you know Seems to me if you wanna be free Then I'll have to let your loving go |

From a distant room came a lonely tune, hangs heavy in the air
Sounds of scene where often been of depression and despair People laughing and joking, drinking and smoking, they are not aware Of the guy or his song as the piano plays on, they don't really care He's just paid to please them, he's a clown without a face A sound to fill their silence, a soul that leaves no trace Every happy song is drowned in, drowned in sorrow Yet no one sees the tears in his eyes His dreams are gone, no special song, no tomorrow No chorus as his spirit slowly dies In the hazy gloom of this living tomb, a stripper earns her pay To lusty cheers and the drunken leers, the piano fades away As she sheds her clothes in a vulgar pose, she strips him of all pride Yet he plays on such a desperate song, feels a savage changing tide Won't someone help me? I just want to play my song If only you would only listen I'd be so happy if you all would sing along I'd have the things that I've been missing But very soon came the final tune, no worry turned to song Just an empty stool and a stagehand's call, his weakness was too strong So twisted and high while starting to fly, he saw the changing tide And he followed its will, until all was still, the piano player died |

Come in, everybody, just make yourself at home
You can dance all night, you can feel alright till tomorrow Come in, anybody, just treat it as your own There's a lot to say if you wanna stay till tomorrow Take the daily strain from upon your brain And move around at ease Give yourself a break from the same mistakes Close the window now and breathe Come on, take your shoes off, make yourself at home Have a drink or two, it'll see you through till tomorrow Come in, everybody, just make yourself at home You can dance all night, you can feel alright till tomorrow Laugh on, dance on, sing on, and join the company Just forget the time, have some peace of mind Come in anybody, in our hospitality Then soon you'll see that tomorrow never comes |

He says he's the only man around
Wait till you look into his eyes He says he's the only man who cares That's just because he's scared This is the only sound around Sounds like a fountain on the ground He says he's the only man around But wait till you look into his eyes He says he's the only man who cares That's just because he's scared |

After all, your day is done and the nighttime's calmed you
Till the dawn comes again and the sunlight warms you There is a light in the fire, reflected in your eyes So with the warmth of desire that comes out of the glow Shining on your face above, making shadows on the wall Baby I know, baby I know No disgrace can cause a shadow to rest on your face But Heaven knows where it comes and where it all goes But there is a bright shiny day waiting to be called If you've the will, there's a way to brighten up your life Oh, silver lining calling me, keep my head above Baby I know, baby I know Don't cry, don't sigh, don't spend your life off the wall Living a love with a sad face won't do no good, won't do no good at all Someday, some way, somebody'll open your eyes Then you'll be like a sunshine, when the dawning comes and you'll be never surprised Feel the glow, reaching out in through my window For when you smile, it touches me somewhere deep down inside For you are a bright shiny day come to take me back I got a will, you're the way, you brighten up my life With a smile, you called at me with a message from above Baby I know, baby I know |

Clear blue sky
Like a angel's eye That clear blue sky It makes me sigh ? sigh When I think of all my daydreams When I think of all my fears All my fears Just as pure as glue Like an angel's eye When I come too Beneath that clear blue sky ? sky |

Standing in the hall waiting for a call, trying to keep a smile on my face
Fell out of a dream that nearly had me screaming at night all over the place And I was calling everywhere, but I can get no answer There isn't anybody here, there's no answer Then out in the night, try to get back, couldn't get it out of my head Everywhere it seemed, I was followed by a dream, a voice that was clearly said "You won't escape from me tonight, you know I've got your number You are the next in line my friend, what's your number?" Gotta find a way to fight back Gotta keep a line of decencies Gotta keep up my defences Gotta be a song, a face by the dawn, it seemed to be calling me --------- said that he would show me a way that I could shake a tree Didn't have a voice, didn't have a choice, and my head felt like dynamite Anyone but now it felt like a blow to one thousand pieces in the night Oh, gotta help me now, I need find the answer There isn't anybody here, there's no answer Oh, gotta help me now Keep a line of decencies If you will only keep up de fences |
