The night was black with thunder The streets were wet with rain Another day goes under A little bourbon will take the strain And I'm waiting for my take-home French fries She smiled and said 'take me away' We always laughed but I think she means it But I'm dreaming my life away Loving you Loving you the way that I do
The weekend cars are leaving In a spray of wind and sound The bar-talk, make believing And the drinks go easy down It's back to the all-night take-away She says 'Here comes the man of my dreams' We always laugh but I think she means it And I'm spending my time Just loving you Loving you the way that I do
