LEADING MEN

|
Talking loud, she's talking clear
|
But no one really wants to hear
|
No one really wants to know
|
And her loneliness still grows
|
Was it shame or was it fear
|
When his devil's face appeared?
|
|
And the wall between them grows
|
The wall between them grows
|
Tonight, velvet night
|
|
He met her on the school yard
|
Funny man behind the fence
|
Started with a real deception
|
He didn't try in vain
|
Who has failed this, who once more?
|
A tall man offering sweets
|
No one wants to think about it
|
And evil sows its seeds
|
|
He tries to hold her in his arms
|
He always tries to keep her warm
|
Blue-eyed girl, grown up to fast
|
Lost her innocence at last
|
Cruel revenge hurt in her heart
|
Breaks dependences apart
|
And now he's begging on his knees
|
Lay your guilty hands on me!
|
|
And the wall between them grows
|
The wall between them grows
|
Tonight, velvet night
|
|
I should be so lucky
|
But I can't help feeling blue
|
I felt no real attention
|
Unsatisfied by youth
|
You brought up a lonely child
|
Without a human shape
|
Made the greatest sacrifice
|
Realized it much too late
|
Too late
|
