It was pretty bright, up on the rainbow bridge tonight. I could see into your window although you're far away. You were racing in a car. Beside a boy, you just don't know.
You're a white collar boy and you gave into the law. Give in to the pressure, the cops gonna getcha. You were a thieving dog at work until they caught your little paw.
Tired like the beggar with the cold inside his bones. And looking for the pleasure that he knew was so far gone. So far gone. . I took a turn to myself and I was surprised.
Wandering alone on the ridge of a coast. lost to the world he had known as a boy. He knows his lover lies south in the city. . Passing along and sleepy as night.
All the way back home. I'm telling you I caught the sun. Creeping up behind my shoulder. And another day's begun. I was following a trail. I'd never been along before.
Wake up young man, it's time to wake up. Your love affair has got to go. For ten long years, for ten long years. The leaves to rake up. . Slow suicide's no way to go, oh.
When she walked out on me, you hung around. Said you couldn't stand to see me going down. And that someday, I'd forget all about her in time. You were right, she's the last thing on my mind.
