I wander lonely streets Behind where the old Thames does flow And in every face I meet Reminds me of what I have run from
In every man, in every hand In every kiss, you understand That living is for other men I hope you too will understand
I've got to tell you my tale Of how I loved and how I failed I hope you understand These feelings should not be in the man
In every child, in every eye In every sky, above my head I hope that I know So come with me in bed Because it's you and me, we're history There ain't nothing left to say When I will get you alone
Maybe we could find a room Where we could see what we should do Maybe you know it's true Living with me is like keeping a fool
In every man, in every hand In every kiss, you understand That living is for other men I hope you know that I am me so come on I'm thinking about history And I'm living for history And I think you know about me Cause I am
And one and one is two But three is company When you're thinking about the things you do And you're thinking about the things you do I want to tell you my tale How I failed in love and jumped out on my bail Do you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand In every sky, in every kiss There's one thing that you might have missed
Why am I going to A place that now belongs to you But you were weak and so am I Let's pick it up, let's even try To live today, so why not smile Don't dream away your life coz it is mine Is that a crime (repeat) this life is mine But the bed ain't made but it's spilled full of hope I've got a skin full of dope (repeat)
