If they say he never worked hard enough I'll tell them he had something else on his mind Always looking for love or whatever came close enough To get him through the night He found himself far from home And it was not hard to get other folks to leave him Alone I was naïve and young With only the words of the barstool bards to base my Conclusions on And I believed him when he said "Don't put your faith in the love of any one man" Chorus: Now he's down there Living in the Starlight Hotel He leaves his blinds open at night So all the world can tell No amount of joy and love in our younger days Can make up for that one last lost love That would not stay My heart is like my mind It's the jealous and the aching kind Neither one knows what the other should do I can write these rhymes Tell you stories tell you lies Somehow they always seem to come true And I stumbled into you You turned my heart a lighter shade of blue When you are gone just a little too long My mind wanders back to all the loves that have gone Wrong I see the light around the moon The cold green gardens about to bloom This may all be over far too soon Can we help each other out? Can we help each other out? If they say you never worked hard enough Tell them you had something else on your mind.
