It's not open to discussion anymore
She's out again tonight
And I'm alone once more
She's all I have worth waiting for
But baby plays around

And so it seems
I've always been the last to know
To hold on to that girl
I had to let her go
I wish to God
I did

Been around enough to know I'm broken
Been around enough to know nothing’s sure
Been around enough to be a little grateful
Been around enough to miss my heart when it was pure

Been around enough to know the story
Been around enough to know how it ends
Been around enough

Lately every word I say to you is coming out wrong
Baby, you’re making me feel like I just don’t belong
You break my heart and then you do it all again
It’s just the things I say keep getting in the way

Every time I go and open my big mouth
What’s it all about?
Every ti

She saw his coat in the charity shop window
In the charity shop window
Where the past lives on at a bargain price
Long ago dreams find another chance to live again

Memories are cheap in the charity shop window
In the charity shop window
She can almost hear if she really

Funny how we still remember
Words to the song they played
Ghosts of a teenage summer
Come to the Palisades
And like a fade to black
It all remains intact

You and your rollercoasters
Me and my souvenirs
Death defying kisses in the funhouse
We got drunk on lov

Did you see the moon tonight
Did it shine the way I asked it to
By the time it made it's way to you
Instead of me
Inside your room tonight

It will dance across your floor
Make you remember more
Then you might want it to
But I want you to
Remember me

He was the finest actor of his generation
He sure fooled me

He was the finest actor of his generation
Left all his stand-ins behind in the dust at Penn Station
He sure fooled me

He moved like DeNiro and talked like O’Toole
Inside I was scared, but he made me feel cool

There's a girl whose stuck inside a picture frame
She's seen your face her mother's mentioned once your name
She sits and dreams her fifteen year old dreams of what to do
She's heard you sing and that your eyes are very very very blue

Why do you run
Why do you hide
From

Last night I dreamed
While I was walking that I died looking up
At fancy buildings and skyscrapers
Are real heartbreakers
When your time has come and gone
It could've been all yours for a song

Of all the things I ever wanted
It was you
And love and freedom
B

Where did those crass band mornings go
And the dreaming over tea
God only knows
Was it so long ago
Your tried to let me know

You'd seen this face
Somewhere before
Now you know for sure
That you can call him

Heartache
Yes, you can call him that
You

Jody was a friend of mine
Met him back in '89
He was a drummer
Who liked to walk from Brooklyn
Down into the city
Watching every girl go by

You know he did
You know he did

Jody wore his clothes real tight
Rude T-shirts and leather
Jody had a camera’s e

If I don't laugh i'll cry
At all the years going by
Why is it so hard
To say your name tonight

This little room we called home
These things I thought that we owned
And our small piece of the sky

Where did you go
Where did you go

Oh Kathleen
All of th

We see life through the same lens
That's what you said to me
And I knew that it was true
Until you threw my heart in the sea

How do I adjust my vision
How do I pretend not to feel
How do I act like we never met
When everything is telling me it was oh so real

I

Just like a little bird
Inside a little cage
Trying to find the strength
To learn to turn the page

Just like a mermaid
I am trapped under the sea
Trying to understand
What life wants me to be

Heroes and villains
And old lovers walk by
They tip their ha

Here
Left to my own devices
I just keep on moving from crisis to crisis
It's sad but true
Til I met you

I've been drifting from problem to problem
Open to find
Some kind of answers to solve them
It's sad but true
What can I do

Well, love actually love

Old man, every now and then
I want to know why you left
Why it was so easy to forget?
Old man, from the look of it
You’re the lucky one
You learned to run
And every time we thought that it was over and done
Just like the Sun, you come back again

Old man, everybo

Have I grown up or just grown old?
Is it there’s no one to hold?
The state of my heart has got me alarmed
When life has lost all its charm

I hate to admit, but everything’s changed
The pictures have all re-arranged
What brought me to tears just yesterday
Now only ge

Oh, NY man
Better than the other man
Oh, NY man
You’re the only thing I understand

Since I left the neighborhood
My spirits gone and I'm not feeling so good
And everything you said would happen all came true
They do things really different here
They don’t do lik

Once in a while the night in its stillness
Under a pale blue Moon
We all fall in love
You can’t keep it in if you try
Don’t know why

Once in your life you might find them
Sparks in an autumn sky
You’ll be caught between
What you wish for and the thing you can’t

Drinking our coffee
It's a quarter to three
No one in this place
Just us and our mistakes
You in the corner
That stupid smile
On your face
Tell me is there a way to replace
All the dreams
That didn't come true
Once we were happy

Once we were people
