Lyrics
Cheap perfume and painted faces
fallen angels fill the places
where I go when my troubles pull me down
And all the lies, I know they'll tell me,
and the time that they will sell me
for a while, I'll be the biggest man in town
Back at home in bed she's crying
For her love for me is dying
But she'll pray I make it safely through the night
When the morning sun starts showing
to her bedside I'll be going
And she'll hold me while I face the morning light
And I'll make promises
promises to change. I'll make her promises
swear I'll rearrange and I'll start giving
All the love she needs if only she
will stay
Once again, she'll reassure me
And I believe her love will cure me
and I'll fall asleep with tears on my face
And I know, she's just a woman
and her love can't last forever
And someday soon,
I know she'll leave without a trace
For broken promises
Will tear her dreams apart. Just token promises
Will someday break her heart and for the last time
She'll hold me when I cry, and while I'm sleeping
She'll quietly say goodbye
