Slipped through the window by the back door
|
Caught short in transit with my love
|
Jumped up, fell back, cut off from romance,
|
How could I fall without a shove
|
Tip-toed like thunder on my feelings
|
You rock me gently with your sighs
|
My knees are weak - my head is reeling
|
Consumed by the fire in your eyes
|
Stepped in and shattered my defences,
|
Just playing hookey with my heart
|
Slipped through the window by the back door
|
And took the keys to my poor heart, yes my poor heart
|
|
Try as I might - try as I may
|
Yes I'll try anything to make you stay
|
Cause I need your love - yes I need your love --
|
I'm looking high - I'm looking low,
|
Can't find where did my baby go
|
Gotta find out why she ran away
|
I don't know where did my baby stay
|
Try as I might - try as I may
|
Yes I'll try anything to make you stay
|
|
Fire down the Boulevard d'Amour
|
Shoot through the neon in the night
|
Hot foot through alleys - check the doorways
|
Try that old parking lot on Ninth
|
There's three-course kissing in the same place
|
But that don't help me out no more
|
I've been away so long and dreaming
|
Little girl ain't I seen you before
|
