On the Town

Oh it's early in the morning It's raining and the streetlights Streaming through my windows Casting shadows on the ceiling The room is oh so empty Stand against the wall The clock is ticking loudly It's deafening in this quiet room (A car is quietly passing) (The door is softly closing) Oh how long have I been waiting? (Footsteps hesitating) (Some keys are held from ringing) What am I to say, inside I don't want to stay Oh 'cos I've been on the town, sick and tired of your frown I can hear you in the hallway It's not unusual You're there everyday Only now the hour's so late Every minute I've had to wait Has been an eternity But now you're back again with me The clock says five fifteen Oh won't you tell me where you've been Won't you tell me where you've been What am I to say, inside I don't want to stay Oh 'cos I've been on the town, sick and tired of your frown And if I met another guy Who could not say I would not lie I saw you in the morning It was just like every other day You kissed me on the cheek I said "Here comes another week" You glanced out of the window And I asked you where your thoughts go "I'm just tired I guess" you said And turned away your head You just turned away your head What am I to say (You just turned away your head) Inside I don't want to stay Oh 'cos I've been on the town, sick and tired of your frown (I'm so tired of waiting) What am I to say (You just turned away your head) I could not stand another day Oh I wish that you could see That it is all over for me And if I met another guy Who could not say I would not lie Cos I've been on the town I've been on the town Cos I've been on the town I've been on the town I've been on the town I've been on the town I've been on the town I've been on the town I've been on the town
