Soho So Long

So cruel the past For in my mind It always lasts too long Soho so bad You drove me mad But everything I loved about you Almost gone I worked your clip joints And your clubs In a sordid light I spent half the night Dancing to your Cheap sentimental songs Somehow Soho and I were one Soho so what Soho so sad Soho so gone Soho so long I gave you everything I had Gave you everything I had We finished on the day The Coffe Pot Became the Sandwich Scene The old Piano Bar I still sing there in my dreams Hold me in your weathered arms Now your exotic charms have gone So long the red light life Bring on the dancing girls Kick out the chorus boys Soho so what Soho so sad Soho so gone Soho so long All the good times that we had All the good times that we had Soho so long I gave you everytihng I had Is the Colony still there? The Golden Girl has gone elsewhere Rital's piano bar New Piccadilly Eats The Old Casino Archer Street The Green Carnation's where we'll meet And maybe there we'll fall in love But until then this song I'll sing To Paul Raymond the Soho King Soon all the cities'll be as one No use crying when they're gone Soho so long Soho so what Soho so sad Soho so gone Soho farewell Soho goodbye Soho so long Soho so long
