While you were out - the message says You left a number and I tried to call But they wrote it down in a perfect Spanish crawl In a perfect Spanish crawl
Yet again I'm missing you King size bed in a hotel someplace I hear your name, I see your face I see your face
Back street dolls and the side door johnnies The wide eyed boys with their bags full of money Back in the alley going bang to the wall Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high, I know If the times gone by hadn't been so low The best laid plans come apart at the seams And shatter all my dreams
Sometimes I feel like screaming, close my eyes Won't be long, I'm coming home Until that distant time I'll be moving on I'll be moving on
Back street dolls and the side door johnnies The wide eyed boys with their bags full of money Back in the alley going bang to the wall Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be so high, I know If the times gone by hadn't been so low The best laid plans come apart at the seams And shatter all my dreams
