Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, the mess I'm in

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, the mess I'm in

She walked up to me

And really stole my heart

And then she started

To take my body apart

Livin', lovin', I'm on the run

far away from you

Livin', lovin', I'm on the run

So far away from you

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, I'm going fast

Doctor doctor, please

Oh, I'm going fast

It's only just a moment

She's turnin' paranoid

That's not a situation

For a nervous boy

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, the mess I'm in

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, the mess I'm in

But you look so angry

As I crawled across your floor

She's got the strain

And I can't take any more

Livin', lovin', I'm on the run

So Far away from you

Livin', lovin', I'm on the run

So far away from you

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, the mess I'm in

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, I'm going fast

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, the mess I'm in

Doctor, doctor, please

Oh, I'm going fast

Seventeen a nature's queen, know what I mean?

Twenty-one, a long one

You can see the numbers run

Now you look so peaceful, lyin' there asleep

With the wings of God above you

Before the spirits meet

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Shadow earth is closin' in above the lamps in your street

Lucifer goes walkin' down for you to meet

Minutes pass so slowly by the hands on your clock

Heaven's door, just no way in

You can knock

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

With all darkness closin' in

Will the light reveal your soul?

Just one sweet kiss on your clay cold lips

Long, long sleep you'll never know

Where do we go, where do we go

Where do we go from here?

Seventeen a nature's queen, know what I mean?

Twenty-one, a long one

You can see the numbers run

Now you look so peaceful, lyin' there asleep

With the wings of God above you

Before the spirits meet

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Was a fast tough woman loved to play the clown

You won't do nothin' about it

Break a good boy's resistance down

You know she's got a pistol

Laid it down for real

She said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy

You gotta shoot it for me

Convinced me that she

Caught in the crossfire, warnin' fight

Legends make or break game

Swept up by the rolling waves of the night

The paper chase for fame

I was too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle

Yeah, I was too, too hot

Too hot to handle

Wink of an eye, the feelings ran high

A real rock and roll molest

But I ain't no romance

And I ain't no slow chance

Won't get no quick change

*and I'm too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle

Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby

Too hot to handle

**sha la la la, roll you over

Turn you around and do it again

Sha la la la , keep on coming

Do it once but never the same

**repeat

I'm in your town, won't fool around

I'll make some action stick

Just like the story says, these boys are bad

So keep out of shootin' range

* repeat

* repeat (ad lib)

Who's taking time out, we'll take a shine out

We're the boys we got nothing to lose

I've had enough now of school and stuff now

If you ain't with us then it's just bad news

Only you can rock me rock me

Come on back now do it again

Only you can rock me, rock me

Kicking out just like a hurricane

We can't wait from day to day

Cause we've got something to say

We can't wait from day to day

Cause we've got something to say

Come on the street now on every corner

Breaking out and we're doing what we want to

Just like a jewel shines in the night

She burns so hot out under the street light

We are here and there's no end

We keep on coming again

We are here and there's no end

We just keep coming again

Who's taking time out, we take a shine out

We're the boys we got nothing to lose

I've had enough now of school

And stuff now

If you ain't with us then it's just bad news

Only you can rock me, rock me

Come on back now, do it again

Only you can rock me, rock me

Kicking out just like a hurricane

We can't wait from day to day

Cause we've got something to say

We are here and there's no end

We'll keep on coming again

We can't wait from day to day

Cause we've got something to say

We are here and there's no end

We'll keep on coming again

Wind blows back and the batons charging

It winds all the way

Right to the butt of my gun

Maybe now your time has come

From the backstreets there's a rumblin'

Smell of anarchy

No more nice time, bright boy shoe shines

Pie in the sky dreams

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

Better now you know we'll never

Wait until tomorrow

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

God knows when I'm comin' on my run

Heaven help those who help themselves

That's the way it goes

Frightening thoughts, what's been taught

And now it shows

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

Better now, you know we'll never

Wait until tomorrow

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

God knows when I'm comin' on my run

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

Better now you know we'll never

Wait until tomorrow

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

God knows when I'm comin' on my run

You keep comin', there's no runnin'

I tried a thousand times

Under your feet, the grass is growin'

Time we said, goodbye

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

Better now you know we'll never

Wait 'til tomorrow

Lights out, lights out in London

Hold 'em tight 'til the end

God knows when I'm comin' on my run

Lights out, lights out in London

Lights out, lights out in London

Young blood where you going now

Young blood where you going now

I didn't mind it when you left me honey

But i miss you ain't the truth

I haven't give up hanging on the phone

But all i hear is the proof

One more night and

I'm thinking what's going wrong

You say you love me but

Does love take this long

You paint a picture you tell a story

Oh the tangled web that you leave

I hear the whispers the candid talking

Arid i don't know what to believe

One more night and

I'm thinking what's going wrong

You say you love me but

Does love take this long

Where do all these dreams have broken

Right or left it's stolen

Stop your running away

Young blood ooh tell me

Where you going now

Young blood ooh tell me

Where you going now

It's never never nothings forever

Turning gold in our hands

There's no magic it all seems tragic

Cause it's slipped through our fingers like sand

One more night and

I'm thinking what's going wrong

You say you love me but

Does love take this long

Where do all these dreams have broken

Right or left it's stolen

Stop your running away

Run run running away

Sarah has her dreams and makes her plans

To get what she wants when she can

A little bit of heaven was all she asked for

In those silent moments deep in the night

She'd find herself make it feel all right

Hungers for the bright life and something more

With her young heart so gently beating

A secret rendezvous lovers meeting

Out in the night, out in the night night night night

Played on the radio, heard on the news

Baby's gone lost they found her shoes

You can turn out the light

You better turn out the light

* you go walking on the wild side

Learn how to run 'cause you can't hide

Better steel yourself away

Another page, another day

In your lonely heart

Beating out in the dark

Lonely heart

And beneath the lights the rock 'n' roll band

Electric guitars, one night stands

Are you giving away, giving away

With hungry and oh so desperate eyes

The souls who get hurt believe in their lies

You only betray only betray

And now you cry yourself to sleep

Against the odds you wanted to beat

You never say no, never say no no no no

Left with the promises that you swore

The price you pay is the love you tore

Now where did it go, where did it go

* repeat

Ruby darling's got a crazy walk

The boys love her with that dirty, dirty talk

Singles bar with the broken light

Just a easy touch, a lady of the night

Ruby darling, I need you

Cross my heart and promise to be true

And you tell me that you can't change

Your life's been set, prearranged

Hold on tight 'til the morning light

Cause we belong to the night

Well-known face in every door

Street kids come and tryna make the score

Patrol car stopped, talk for a while

But they let you go with a warning and a smile

Ruby darling, I need you

Cross my heart and promise to be true

And you tell me that you can't change

Your life's been set, prearranged

Hold on tight 'til the morning light

Cause we belong to the night

And you tell me that you can't change

Your life's been set, prearranged

Hold on tight 'til the morning light

Cause we belong to the night

Life goes on down the streets

Contacts made where the gay boys come to meet

Keep saying it's your last night

Give up this life for me without a fight

Ruby darling, I need you

Cross my heart and promise to be true

And you tell me that you can't change

Your life's been set, prearranged

Hold on tight 'til the morning light

Cause we belong to the night

And you tell me that you can't change

Your life's been set, prearranged

Hold on tight 'til the morning light

Cause we belong to the night

Two lovers in a desperate game

She holds him close but their love's in vain

And the married man that you laid

Goes back home to his own charade

She puts her faith in every word he said

Tender moments in a motel bed

When you press the point he says we'll see

But then walks through your mystery

So darling, you tell me it's a wild world

You gotta take a little pain and

How long till love last

That you can never, never explain

Do you just

Let it rain, let it rain

Don't stop those tears falling again just

Let it rain, let it rain

Now you see that love's just a game

In his arms time goes so fast

But stolen love will never last

You try to keep him though you know it's wrong

This kind of love can only last so long

So darling, you tell me it's a wild world

You gotta take a little pain and

How long till love last

That you can never, never explain

Do you just

Let it rain, let it rain

Don't stop those tears falling again just

Let it rain, let it rain

Now you see that love's just a game

So darling, you tell me it's a wild world

You gotta take a little pain and

How long till love last

That you can never, never explain

Do you just

Let it rain, let it rain

Don't stop those tears falling again just

Let it rain, let it rain

Now you see that love's just a game

Let it rain, let it rain

Don't stop those tears again

You gotta

Let it rain, let it rain

Now you see that love's just a game

You gotta

Let it rain, let it rain

Don't stop those tears again

Let it rain, let it rain

Now you know that love's a game

You gotta

Let it rain, let it rain

Don't stop those tears again

You gotta

Let it rain, let it rain

You wake up in the morning

Look for a clue, something new

Turn on the radio and it's as dead

As the visions dying in your head

And when you were young

You had big ideas, no hidden fears

You had your heroes, they were walking tall

Now your devotion seems comical

So now you got older

And the world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter but your history

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right

You played the game as children

Didn't understand, life's not so grand

Cause love hurts you and you could feel

Lonely, lonely, lonely one

Some people get it easy

They got it made, so unafraid

You'll be the fool and find the winner

He's gonna take it all

So now you got older

And the world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter but your history

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right

So now you got older

And the world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Hey, you got older and this world's got colder than it used to be

Every day gets longer and turns into a darker night

Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter but your history

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right, no, no, no, no

I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right

On the wires I can hear you comin'

With a rush and a strummin'

This electric phase ain't no teenage craze

In your house a phone is ringin'

Just a hot touch that keeps lingerin'

You said loving's easy only if you please

All I need is communication

Not a line on your reputation

I don't want a handshake

There ain't no big mistake

There's no illusion in this wild confusion

Who knows I'm crazy, no chance of maybe

I'd like to know you better

But I"m goin' down so fast

Help me now to feel it, I just can't conceal it

Sweet time I've got to show you how it's really got to be

Just let me be alone, left with your dialing tone

There's no illusion in this wild confusion

Who knows I'm crazy, no chance of maybe

I'd like to know you better

But I"m goin' down so fast

On the wires I can hear you comin'

With a rush and a strummin'

This electric phase ain't no teenage craze

In your house a phone is ringin'

Lights turn red to green

I haven't been spotted or seen

Four more blocks and I'm safe

Make it clean without a chase

There's something special, certain feeling

I can't blow this one for sure

I've been nervous, anxious and edgy

This one's the last one, there'll be no more

But all I've got to do tonight

Take the car and meet the man downtown

It's easy, darling, working away

Before the word's got around

And I'll do it all for you, oh yes, I will

This time I'm coming through, oh yeah

I said, "I'm burning, I been rolling

This car's tuned up to make it fly

Don't worry, darling, just get ready

Tonight we're gonna be going out in style"

If anyone comes calling around

Don't answer 'cause you're my alibi

So just trust me, kiss me and love me

Chasing the golden mile

And I'll do it all for you, oh yes, I will

This time I'm coming through

I'll do it all for you, I will

This time I'm coming through, oh yeah

Do it all for you, yes, I will

This time I'm coming through

Coming through, coming through

It's hot up in the West End, there's panic right downtown

As the gangs assemble, coming up from underground

Well, Jesus, I don't know which side I should be on

I'm a class contender if anything goes wrong

When it's time to rock

We're the only ones

No one takes this block

Cos we're number one

We sneaked through the no go, very late last night

Out up from the back streets, cruising for a fight

Well, Jackie's got his six string, he can play behind his back

Mickey's out from Bellevue, he's just makin' tracks

When it's time to rock

We're the only ones

No one takes this block

Cos we're number one

As we rocked through the midnight, took 'em all by storm

The police boys didn't have a chance, didn't even get warm

Oh Daddy, why am I sittin' here? I'm not a member of the bar

I'm not the only wild one in a hot wired car

When it's time to rock

We're the only ones

No one takes this block

Cos we're number one

[Verse 1]

Lady love to hang on

Played it like a real intellectual

Sweet sister you're still shaking

And your tragedy is never ending

Silver shoes you're wearing

And every window that you've ever stared in

Over my head, over my head

[Verse 2]

Sidewalks of the city

Every theater there you've ever played

Your comic book impersonations

Louise Fazenda and Buster Keaton

Over my head, so it's all

[Chorus]

Out in the street for just one more matinee

Yes, your vaudeville carries on

So put a smile in front your man can see

Yes, your vaudeville carries on

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Out in the street for just one more matinee

Yes, your vaudeville carries on

So put a smile in front your man can see

Yes, your vaudeville carries on

[Verse 3]

Lady love to hang on

Played it like a real intellectual

Sweet sister your still shaking

And your tragedy is never ending

Over my head, over my head

Try to make some changes really on the line

Given your religion, never ever time

All the jokers laughing, queens upon the floor

Mothers understand it, baby needs some more

Head held up to ransom, by a quick hand and a gun

Just your education, hard to understand

Will the teenage legend make a mark on you

Make a big time status, with a pen we'll stab it through

Mother Mary could you ever really feel the same

And would you try to understand a wild colonial boy

Try to make some changes really on the line

Given your religion, never ever time

All the jokers laughing, queens upon the floor

Mothers understand it, baby needs some more

Mother Mary could you ever really feel the same

And would you try to understand a wild colonial boy

Try to make some changes really on the line

Given your religion, never ever time

All the jokers laughing, queens upon the floor

Mothers understand it, baby needs some more

Said she came from Memphis

You can look but please don't touch

Didn't like rock and rollers

Seemed a bit much too much

* Cause it's the natural thing you feel at the start

Natural blood starts to flow

Yeah, the natural thing, you get at the start

Then she'll never let you go

Hey girl, now does it feel alright Think I'm gettin' through

Don't you think the band's real tight Wait til we start to move

** May sound funny but you gave it to me

I didn't even like it

May sound funny but you gave it to me

And now I got to live without it

I been down to Atlanta

Got to move my feet

Gettin' down for the last encore

With every star she meets

[* Repeat]

[** Repeat]

[** Repeat]

Why'd you do it, why'd you do it

Last train's eleven, it's now quarter past

Why're you tryin' to make the evenin' move so fast

And I'm in real trouble but I can't go back home

They locked the doors and I'm left out alone

You can come to my place and sleep on the couch

Lots of people do it and we won't leave you out

Hard times out on the street

Hard times, hard to beat

The painted lies they all hand you

I'm a loser on the road

I'm a loser on the road, yeah

Houston station and it's cold as ice

All night specials, they move you on

But me and Ginger over there

We got this thing where we really take care

You can come to my place and sleep on the couch

Lots of people do it and we won't leave you out

Hard times out on the street

Hard times, hard to beat

The painted lies they all hand you

I'm a loser on the road

I'm a loser on the road, yeah

Loser

I'm a loser

I'm a loser

I'm a loser

Yeah, yeah

Just a kid with a crazy dream wants it all before he's seventeen

Don't know where to begin

With a wild thought he knows the fact, no no there's no looking back

Just gotta stand up and make it real

How does it feel to be right out on your own

Just gotta keep looking out for #1

Some people make it and others don't try, they seem happy to live out a lie

I'm right here on my own

Me I'm a gambler and I pay for my sins, I've been right there and I'm back again

Just gotta stand up and make it real

How does it feel to be right out on your own

Just gotta keep looking out for #1

Let's get away right out of here, it's not soon enough for me

Breaks of a lifetime it's there like a lifeline, reach out and grab it it's free

-- (short instrumental)--

How does it feel right out on your own

Just gotta keep looking out for #1

-- (another short instrumental) --

How does it feel right out on your own

Just gotta keep looking out for #1

How does it feel...to be out on your own... just gotta

How does it feel to be out on your own, just gotta keep lookin' out for #1

How does it feel to be out etc

How does it feel

Gotta give you love oh cherry

Dance for me there's only you

Play the barrooms just for pennies

Wish I wasn't just passing through

Tell me your secrets, tell me no one way lyin' now

We are golden, we are golden

And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone

Into the highways of thei night I roll alone

On the tabletops she's dancing, sit and smile into your beer

Turn around no cherry for me, let me know you know I'm here

We are golden, we are golden

And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone

Into the highways of the night, making it feel all right

Come on cherry let's make it together

Out of the neon and into my life

We can't play this game forever, now...

* (instrmental)

Gotta give my love oh cherry, dance for me there' s only you

Play the barrooms just for pennies, wish I wasn't just passing through

Tell me your secrets, tell me no one way lyin' now

We are golden, we are golden

And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone

Into the highways of the night I roll alone

Wonder if you belong

Think you've got it down

Does it still feel the same

Now that he's not around?

Born to lose, born to lose

Make your mind up, no fooling around

Now that I know

I could never be, I would never be the only one

Wonder how it all began

As if that mattered anyway

There's someone else you're always wanting

Every single day

Born to lose, born to lose

Make your mind up, no fooling around

Now that I know

I could never be, I would never be the only one

Born to lose, born to lose

Make your mind up, no fooling around

Now that I know

I could never be, I would never be the only one

Oh it's been too many times and I can't go back

Night bars, guitars, rundown motels like shacks

What it mounts up to I don't want it at all

Lost you and I want you today

Misty green and blue

Love to love to love you

Misty green and blue

Love to love to love you

To be something, to be near you

Don't say that you'll never know

Love to love to love you

Half the time it could seem funny

The other half is just too sad

This west bound moon's only rise and fall

Lost you and I want you today

Misty green and blue

Love to love to love you

Misty green and blue

Love to love to love you

To be something, to be near you

I don't know where I'm goin' to

I've tried and I need you to stay

Kid's gettin' tired, hangin' around

So cocksure, thinkin' aloud

Can't get it in, can't get it out

Sure ain't enough and there ain't no doubt

Can't stop a train with just a smile

Stop me at the start only for a while

Hole in my pocket, hole in my arm

All that's left when life's lost it's charm

This could be for us just any other day

Come on girl, we've really got to get away

It's the only chance you'll ever have to change

Stickin' in this city will drive you insane

Kid's gettin' tired, hangin' around

So cocksure, thinkin' aloud

Can't get it in, can't get out

Sure ain't enough and there ain't no doubt

Can't win or lose when there's little left to choose

Now 'til next year it'll always be the same

The black back streets and people

Who don't know your name

Go with the wind, it'll only carry us away

Cold run speed highway was the place where we'd all go

When our nerves were razor sharp, and we'd all let it roll

Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll, let it roll

Our machine's geared up, and we're really layin' it down, layin' it out

Let it go

When these wheels get rollin', let them roll right over you

Cause I'm well greased down, and I'll always win it through

Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll, let it roll

Machine's geared up, and we're really layin' it down, layin' it out

Let it roll

Cold run speed highway was the place where we'd all go

When our nerves were razor sharp and we'd all let it roll

Let it roll, let it roll, let it roll, let it roll

Machine's geared up, and we're really layin' it down, layin' it out

Let it roll

Run down, low down, don't feel tired

Take no orders, don't get fired

I waste away cruisin' along

* fighting blizzards, ragin' storms

Hold the wheels tight, know I'm born to ramble on

Cruisin' along

But I stop, turn my head around

Sleep until tomorrow, in my arms

In my arms,

Highway lady, lorelei, dream the big time high above

Highway lady, high on wheels make you smile again

How she feels

Found my way to spanish stairs

Small corruption, no one cares I taste a lie

Cruisin' along

* repeat

* repeat

How she feels

Highway lady, highway lady highway lady, highway lady

Fast as light our jets were burnin'

On the road a distant siren song

Hands upon my engines growin'

Vincent's deep throat breathin' out so strong

I can hold her, can you roll her

Ride her like there's no tomorrow

Siren's song sure is growin' stronger

Shadow reached a high note

And in the distance [electric lights]++++ no longer

I can hold her, can you roll her

I can hold her, can you roll her

I can hold her, can you roll her

Fast as light our jets were burnin'

On the road a distant siren song

Hands upon my engines growin'

Vincent's deep throat breathin' out so strong

I can hold her, can you roll her

I can hold her, can you roll her

I can hold her, can you roll her

I can hold her, can you roll her

I can hold her, can you roll her

Yeah, said it's alright, I won't forget

All the times I've waited patiently for you

And you do just what you choose to do

And I will be alone again tonight, my dear

Yeah, I heard a funny thing somebody said to me

You know that I could be in love with almost anyone

I think that people are the greatest fun

And I will be alone again tonight my dear

* repeat

Tell me why were never more than strangers

Tell me why you never let it show

But when you're close to me

And whisper, I need you

In the cold mornin' light

Try me, oh take me for a little while

Before its over and you leave me with just a smile

Try me, oh let me be the one

You say its over

But for me it had just begun

Tell me why we seem no more than strangers

Tell me why the feelin' never goes

But when you're close to me

And whisper, I need you

In the cold mornin' light

Try me, oh take me for a little while

Before its over and you leave me with just a smile

Try me, oh let me be the one

You say its over

But for me it had just begun

* you said that was that but this is it

How were you to make the pieces fit

Into a plan to start a new life

Friends pat your back, then stab you with a knife

** I must be blind I'm gettin' ready to be defined

No [loose connections] cause it feels alright

I'm gettin ready to hit the [line]

Can you fee me inside and out, I'm just waiting for you

['cause] it's alright now I know just what I want to do

** repeat

When a day breaks, turns you around

And your world upside down

And the visions fade

Rights and wrongs and just where you've gone

** repeat

Making out is such an awful drag

And I could lose my mind and every time that I turned around

I never knew if I could really find you

*repeat

** repeat

It's another night out on the avenue

Lookin' for somethin', somethin' that you knew

And you're wonderin' where she is

Now there's, now there's no more rendezvous

You're left out here on this cold stark street

With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet

Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss

Where's that girl the one you miss

Those ooh la la la girls in their skirts they go rushin' by

They look around and give you that come on

With their dreamy, dreamy eyes

Then you never stop to count your mistakes

That one blind moment with no give and take

Is lost in every stranger's face you see

If there's a loser that loser's me

Please put a little love back into my life

Won't you please put a little love back into my life

Every night's another night you keep lookin' back

Trying to fill the spaces

Hours and minutes and the missin' gaps

But you're left out here on this cold stark street

With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet

Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss

Where's that girl the one you miss

Please put a little love back into my life

Won't you please put a little love back into my life

Every shadow's like a ghost that comes and haunts you

Angel of the night plays her tricks these days, it's true

With every step, every step you see her slip away

Not just today

It's another night out on the avenue

Lookin' for somethin', somethin' that you knew

Left out here on this cold stark street

With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet

Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss

Where's that girl the one you miss

Please put a little love back into my life

Won't you please put a little love back into my life

Please put a little love back into my life, into my life

Won't you please put a little love back into my life

You got to, got to, got to

Please put a little love back into my life

Please put a little love back into my life

I want you to call my name

I need to hear your voice again

You know, I want you to call my name

Any time, there's no shame in our love

I met you, watching the cars go by

You were there, every night, at the corner of Elm and Vine

And you had nothing to hide

For just a few bucks and you know it's a free ride

I want you to call my name

I need to hear your voice again

You know, I want you to call my name

Any time, there's no shame in our love

I picked you up for all the wrong reasons

You left home for Hollywood, where there's no break even

We had nothing to hide

You were just a few years on the wrong side

I want you to call my name

I need to hear your voice again

You know, I want you to call my name

Any time, there's no shame in our love

It's only love, I know, a real love

I know it's only love and you showed me how

Gotta keep you now

We had nothing to hide

You were just a few years on the wrong side

I want you to call my name

Need to hear your voice again

You know, I want you to call my name

Any time, there's no shame in our love

In our love, in our love, there's no shame in our love

In our love, in our love

Love me tender, love me true

Oooh baby what a song could do

We were sharp like needles in the dark, no question mark

My friend billy was one of a kind

Growin' up and runnin' wild

We could take a sunset and make it real

We stood together on the edge of a knife

To be friends, brothers for life

* And we have seen the night run, it's a thousand miles away

Yes we have seen the night run, it passed us by in just one day

Used to say well it's me and you

Oooh we could make dreams come true

And we put some magic in this night, oh feels so right

Came across your photograph

Everything was just a laugh

Where do you go when you reach the end

Into the night we would explode

With hand on my heart, rules of the road

* Repeat twice

Big city lights they fade then they go

Some people give up and lose the fight

We could prove it night after night after...

* Repeat three times then start fading out

I'm lettin' go now

Don't think, I can last

I'm lettin' go now

I've been living too fast

I'm not up in the morning

And beat the clock at night

It's got so damn predictable

Feel I'm doing time

Oh no, I can't stand another day

I see those gates are closing, caught in the ricochet

Oh no, my life's in miniature, I'll be here forever

How much more can a poor boy take

When all he needs is an even break?

I'm lettin' go now

Work is driving me crazy

Lettin' go now

Take a lot to save me

Started when I was sixteen

It's been just like a drug

I'm working every day

You'd think, I was in love

Oh no, I can't stand another day

I see the gates are closing, caught in the ricochet

Oh no, my life's in miniature, I'll be here forever

How much more can a poor boy take

When all he needs is an even break?

I'm lettin' go now

Don't think I can last

I'm lettin' go now

I've been living too fast
