A Friday night affair
|
Out in the city heat
|
Always a party there
|
Along the sordid street
|
And it was guaranteed
|
The place to be was Rocketown
|
|
The drinks were two for one
|
Inside the crowded bars
|
The girls would make their run
|
Down on the boulevard
|
It was the idol place
|
We lived the ways of Rocketown
|
Hang around by the street light
|
In the heart of the night life
|
|
There came a certain man
|
A stranger to the crowd
|
We didn't understand
|
What he was all about
|
He walked a different pace
|
So out of place in Rocketown
|
|
They made a fool of him
|
They teased him when he's speak
|
But when they knocked him down
|
He turned the other cheek
|
He told me I could find
|
A life outside of Rocketown
|
Hang around by the street light
|
In the heart of the night life
|
|
(Chorus)
|
What was his mission
|
Where was he going
|
Why was his heart light always glowing?
|
All I was missing
|
He stood there holding
|
What was his secret
|
Could I know it?
|
|
Some didn't like him near
|
Some laughed and turned away
|
But me, I longed to hear
|
All that he had to say
|
He had a peace of mind
|
I couldn't find in Rocketown
|
And when I reached down inside me
|
I could feel the emptiness
|
|
He said it's in the heart
|
This change that comes to be
|
Now he had done his part
|
The rest was up to me
|
As we were standing there
|
He said a prayer for Rocketown
|
As we were standing there
|
He said a prayer for Rocketown
|
|
He walked off silently
|
And prayed for me
|
And Rocketown...
|
