Into the night on heels I stumble Like a star about to shoot Catch me down the avenue like A dandy lion parachute
Release the hounds, chase my tail and Treat me like a renegade I'm as patient as a chain-reaction But I am not afraid
We're gonna leave all the troubles behind by the turnpike Going away, you know what it feels like I'll never let you go, Joe Dallesandro The rocks in my shoes won't dig into my feet Free of the promises that I can't keep I'll never let you go, Joe Dallesandro
No matter what you say I can't shake off this fling
Into the night I paint the city In the colors of my eyeshade Walking with a papertiger I am not afraid
We're gonna leave all the troubles behind by the turnpike Going away, you know what it feels like I'll never let you go, Joe Dallesandro The rocks in my shoes won't dig into my feet Free of the promises that I can't keep I'll never let you go, Joe Dallesandro
No matter what you say I can't shake off this fling No matter what you do I can't shake off this fling
The number of tears you cry equals the number of tears you dry I'll never let you go, Joe Dallesandro
