Lyrics

Close your eyes and go to sleep From the howling howling over these streets People stare 'cause you're so mad That wild wild spark that innocent laugh But baby that's this town It won't happen next time Yeah baby that's this town Lovers on love downs It's this town to be blamed At the top of the block there's a church At the top of the tower there's the clock And it rings and it sighs 'Cause there's no time for all these lies But baby that's this town It won't happen next time Yeah baby that's this town Lovers on love downs It's this town to be blamed Baby take a walk round to my house Throw off these tired eyes and tears and these frowns Take that lane so narrow and deep and walk those regrets that fill your sleep You say your sleep is nakedb and your dreams are clothed But what about your footsteps Who sees them go Who lets you know about these things Who's gonna say the things we think So take your keys and pack your bags But leave your books and leave your maps 'Cause baby that's this town It won't happen next time Yeah baby that's this town It won't happen next time Yeah baby that's this town It won't happen next time Sure baby that's this town Lovers on love downs It's this town to be blamed It's this town to be blamed Work work work Rain rain rain Home home home Again again again Work work work Rain rain rain Home home home Again again again
