I ve come from the other side of town
This concrete jungle s got me down
I feel the heet, from the street

Is I want to spread the news that if it feels this good getting used
Just keep on using me...

If somebody s askin I ve gone away
Yeah somebody s packin and gone today
The summer was lovely and I enjoyed my stay
Maybe I ll be back one day
Sorry to hurry but I ll miss my plane

Don t worry...

Take care
she will fall on you like winter
you don’t hear a thing but the beating of wings
as the lights go out

There you are
standing in the doorway
with a cigarette
you say, “hey rock n’ roll. did you really have to sell your soul, or were you just playing the fool?
that shame is...
