On a cold and windy morning, said goodbye to my old friends
|
They were hangin' around the corner,
|
They were stayin' till the end
|
|
On the other side of midnight,
|
I was lookin' for a place to stay
|
And one thing's sure for certain,
|
I ain't never goin' back again
|
|
The streetlights looked so pretty as they spread into a town
|
I was lookin' for another sundown
|
And my head was spinning round and round
|
|
Chorus: Lookin' through the eyes of a stranger
|
Lookin' through the eyes of danger
|
Lookin' at the all-night dancer
|
Never takin' all the chances
|
|
As I walked into the main street, saw a crowd across the square
|
And I heard a guitar playin' and I saw you standing there
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Distant bells they started ringing, somewhere far off in the night
|
And the place was full of loneliness that disappeared from sight
|
