I iron and I sew as I watch the late show. But something moist keeps getting in my eyes. He called and said don't wait. He'd be working late. . And so another lonely night goes by.
All these lonely lonely mem'ries from the past. I'm sittin' at the table where we used to sit. Thinking of love I knew would never last. Thought I heard the band start playing our favorite song.
Make the world go away and get it off my shoulders. Say the things you used to say and make the world go away. . Do you remember when you'd love me before the world took me astray.
Thinking about throwin' away the key. What would that mean. For you and me?. Whoa. . Who says something of throwing away 'The me'?. Still looking out.
I wonder if my rope?s still hanging from the tree. By the standing pool where you drank me. And filled me full of thirsty love. And the memory of water?.
For me and my true-love will never walk again on the bonnie, bonnie banks of loch lomond.. . Moira anderson, eat your heart out!. You-ou--. . You'll take the high road an' I'll take the low road, an' I'll be in scotland before you.
I found smog at the end of my rainbow. I found my thoughts shift slowly into phase. Declared the constitution of the walkway. I realise it's time to plan the day.
IV. That was almost the end of my marbles. Confiscated, I choked back the tears. I hung onto a handful of favourites. That disappeared over the years.
I. Did anyone see my last marble. As it rolled out and over the floor?. It fell through a hole in the corner. Of a room in a town on a tour. . It's lonely without your last marble.
II. When I was a child I had marbles. They brought admiration and fame. They were pretty to look at and marbles. Was always my favourite game. . We played all the summer days.
III. There were almost four hundred until the black day. I discovered how high they would fly to the sky. If you used them for tennis instead of a ball...
I have been here many times before. In a life I used to live. But I have never seen these streets so fresh. Washed with morning rain. . I have seen this face a thousand times.
Watching the people on the street today she couldn't help but smile. Watchin' the town go walking by all shaded eyes and alibis. Strange how much pain you can hide away beneath a well-cut suit.
Tell me I'm mad. How should I know?. Tell me I'm mad. I have been here for so long. . Help me paint a picture. They say it's a lie. Tell me I'm mad. You're a fine one to decide.
I'm the man of a thousand faces. A little piece of me in every part I take. I hold the tape for a thousand races. A different point of view in every speech I make.
But he who dies with the most toys. Is still dead.. He who dies with the most toys. Is still dead.. . You have to be cool. You have to be hip. You have to be chic.
Mirrorball. You lit every dark corner. Made the air feel like it was dancing. Your eyes like an old coloured vinyl. Were hiding in grooves a smile. Like a sweet aria.
There's a mood on your mouth. Sparkles like a jewel. It's the morning. So you're going to be cruel. With your quiet dismay. Of one more day. That you just have to live through.
No one is going to hurt you. I'm the one who will protect you. Let your walls down. I want to be around you. I just don't want to surround you. . You think everyone has got it in for you.
