I tell you, I won't say a thing
I tell you, man, this bird won't sing
You could give up under a pale light
Spend your day waiting for the night
& when he walks on into the room
What will you do?
I see your face all changed
Like the avenue of expectancy you came through
You came through
You came through
You came through
You're like a cut that's going to scar
You're gonna push me a bit too far
You should end up now owed to the stars
You're gonna end up behind bars
You set your sights up high
So far too steep to reach
Sliding down this scale
That'll lead you into misery & grief
I tell you I won't say a thing
I tell you, man, this bird won't sing
You could give up under a pale light
Spend your days waiting for the nights
& when he walks on into the room
What will you do?
I see your face all changed
Like the avenue of expectancy you came through
You came through
You came through
You came through
You came through
You came through
You came through
No more blue
