|
Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo, |
|
Crying in the rain |
|
Here was a kind of so-so love |
|
and I'm gonna make sure it doesn't happen again |
|
You and I it, had to be the standing joke of the year |
|
You were a run-around, a lost and found, then I found thee half healed |
|
CHORUS |
|
Take your hands off me |
|
I don't belong to you, you see |
|
And take a look in my face for the last time |
|
I never knew you,you never knew me, |
|
say hello, goodbye |
|
Say hello and wave goodbye |
|
We tried to make it work, |
|
you in a cocktail skirt and me in a suit |
|
but it just wasn't me |
|
You're used to wearing less |
|
and now your life's a mess so insecure you see |
|
Well I put up with all the scenes and this is one scene that's going to be played my way |
|
CHORUS |
|
Under the deep red light, I can see the make-up sliding down |
|
Well hey little girl, you will always make-up |
|
so take off that unbecoming frown |
|
As for me well, I'll find someone |
|
who's not going cheap in the sales |
|
A nice little house wife who'll give me the steady life and not keep going off the rails. |
|
CHORUS |
|
Repeat Say hello- wave goodbye |
|
We were born before the wind, who are we to understand |
|
We were born before the wind, say goodbye |
|
Through the rain, sleet and snow, |
|
get on the train and say goodbye, |
|
say goodbye, |
|
in the wind and the rain my darling, say goodbye |
|
In the wind and the rain my darling. |
