like I kissed your beating heart
and kiss beneath your hat
and take you, on your mat
oh, silver night

Didn't do well with mother
after seven whiskeys
got frisky
tried to get her to dance
Almost missed my mark
the dogs began to bark
so, I dragged you in the park
once again
Kamata Hollywood City shining
my wife's best friend, you changed your mind
it's just like Disneyland after Dark
you shook me,
our lives will never be the same
solo : well, this is too much for me!
Happy shoppers stare at me
drunk along the street
boots upon my feet
"Oh, where's he from?"
Now, I'm lost in the city
this could be the end
better phone up my wife's best friend
and here you come,
Kamata Hollywood City shining
my wife's best friend, you changed your mind
it's just like Disneyland every night,
you shook me,
our lives will never be the same

That line don't make it here no more
nothing reanimates the old times
black clouds to the west
darkness coming from the East Side
Get your friends out of the car!
we got a date in the trees tonight
take off your clothes, you ain't going far
you're going to give me fun tonight

turn on the lights

watch us fall
Your body don't get me off no more
it takes a lot of smack to do that
we never made love in the trees
or took you down on your mat
Now, winds of change
are blowing out the fire
I feel your breath on my neck
I hear the darkness and wires
Turn on the headlights
for the Idiot Waltz
turn on the lights
watch us fall

I'm here up above the world
E D B
looking down on the river black
ready to take a great swan dive
'cause you're never coming back
C D E + riff intro
I'm here up above the world
I always have to start all over
when I decide I should live
I won't be cheated anymore
'cause there's nothing left to give
I'm here up above the world
We almost started something
that you saw fit to take away
something so close to my heart
something near me every day
I'm hear up above the world
D riff intro / D
I'm here
Forever you were my sister
but you took my heart in chains
the worst was when you broke them
I cannot live with the pain
I'm here up above the world
I'm here

It's lonely here in the freezing dawn
the ships come in through the London fog
the builders there are tearing up my street
the ambulance roars
it makes the sound I weep
solo : this is too much for me
I'm here up above the world
looking down at the river red
trying to bet my prayer
at the foot of my lonely bed
I'm here up above the world
Since I'll no longer be living
you'll have to answer my mail
explain it all to the papers
that I bought my ticket for hell
There down below the world
I'm here
