You're comin' tonight
|
To my home town
|
I've been to yours many times before
|
And it's always been a thrill
|
|
You'll stay in a hotel
|
Or at friends near by
|
We haven't spent the night together in this town
|
Since nineteen seventy nine
|
Not such a long time
|
|
I can steal a melody
|
Of this I am allowed
|
'Cause you would never sue me baby
|
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird
|
|
Have a drink after the show
|
I might really want to know
|
But everything you say I oppose
|
I blame it on my hole
|
It's just my role
|
|
I can steal a melody
|
Of this I am allowed
|
'Cause you would never sue me baby
|
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird
|
|
I spend my time trying to forget you
|
With booze and smoke from cigarettes and dope
|
I only seem to forget myself
|
It's only you that is left
|
|
I can steal a melody
|
Of this I am allowed
|
'Cause you would never sue me baby
|
I can steal a melody
|
This I am allowed
|
You would never sue me baby
|
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird
|
It'd be weird, it'd be weird
|
|
You're comin' tonight
|
To my home town
|
