| I know that it is freezing but I think we have to walk
|
| Waving at the taxis; |
| they keep turning their lights off
|
| But Julie knows a party at some actor’s west side loft
|
| Supplies are endless in the evening; |
| by the morning they’ll be gone
|
| When everything is lonely I can be my own best friend
|
| I get a coffee and the paper; |
| have my own conversations
|
| With the sidewalk and the pigeons and my window reflection
|
| The mask I polish in the evening, by the morning looks like shit
|
| And I know you have a heavy heart; |
| I can feel it when we kiss
|
| So many men stronger than me have thrown their backs out trying to lift it
|
| But me I’m not a gamble you can count on me to split
|
| The love I sell you in the evening, by the morning won’t exist
|
| You’re looking skinny like a model with your eyes all painted black
|
| You just keep going to the bathroom always say you’ll be right back
|
| Well it takes one to know one, kid, I think you’ve got it bad
|
| But what’s so easy in the evening, by the morning is such a drag
|
| I’ve got a flask inside my pocket we can share it on the train
|
| If you promise to stay conscious I will try and do the same
|
| We might die from medication, but we sure killed all the pain
|
| But what was normal in the evening, by the morning seems insane
|
| And I’m not sure what the trouble was that started all of this
|
| The reasons all have run away but the feeling never did
|
| It’s not something I would recommend, but it is one way to live
|
| Cause what is simple in the moonlight, by the morning never is
|
| What’s so simple in the moonlight, now is so complicated
|
| What’s so simple in the moonlight, so simple in the moonlight |
