A cry from the old part of town You smile when there's no one around You try hard to hide all the pain But your tears they keep falling like rain And you feel so out of time And you seem so out of place Like the love you left behind On some better day In some better way I'm coatless and terribly pale When silver is turning to grey An angel came down from the skies But it was you in your brilliant disguise But I feel so out of time And I seem so out of place Like the love we left behind We just sit around and wait For some better days In some better way Oh you silly girl, don't you know what life is about? We've been this way before, they chew you up and spit you right out Oh you silly girl, don't you know what life is about?
