Remember me, you were a friend of mine,
|
Restless and young, I'm the one you made love to for the first time.
|
Now look at you, what you been up to, since I saw you last?
|
Your hair's a mess, you're half-dressed, you're loaded and you're fadin' fast.
|
|
All the dreams, you had of wealth and fame,
|
You took to the city, what a shame, they're all shattered, now your heart's in pain.
|
Makin love for a livin', you've given up, all you've got's a heart of stone.
|
Makin' the most of a sad situation, Paradise Alley's your home.
|
|
Paradise Alley, what a way to be alone,
|
Paradise Alley, a thousand miles away from home, yeah.
|
|
Lookin' back, I still recall the time,
|
I wonder how in the world was it so easy to be so unkind.
|
Will you be sorry when you realize the story has to end this way?
|
Lost in the night, never quite getting used to all the games they play.
|
|
You wait in vain, and your heart's in pain,
|
And dreams are all you have to hold on to.
|
You're losin' touch and it hurts so much,
|
To think of all the love I had for you.
|
|
Paradise Alley, what a way to be alone,
|
Paradise Alley, a thousand miles away from home, yeah.

|
Paradise Alley, what a way to be alone.
|
Paradise Alley, a thousand miles away from home.
|
|
Paradise Alley, what a place to call your home,
|
Paradise Alley, what a way to be alone, yeah.
