|
Down in a local bar out on the Boulevard |
|
The sound of an old guitar |
|
Is saving you from sinking |
|
It's a long way down, it's a long way |
|
Back like you never broke, you tell a dirty joke |
|
He touches your leg and thinks he's getting close |
|
For now you let him |
|
Just this once, just for now, and just like that it's over |
|
Don't turn away, dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Don't be afraid, but keep it all inside, all inside |
|
When you fall apart, dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Life is always hard for the Belle of the Boulevard |
|
In all your silver rings, in all your silken things |
|
That song you softly sing |
|
Is keeping you from breaking |
|
It's a long way down, it's a long way |
|
Back here you never lost, you shake the shivers off |
|
You take a drink to get your courage up |
|
Can you believe it? |
|
Just this once, just for now, and just like that it's over |
|
Don't turn away, try your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Don't be afraid, oh keep it all inside, all inside |
|
When you fall apart, dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Life is always hard for the Belle of the Boulevard |
|
Please hold on, it's alright |
|
Please hold on, it's alright |
|
Please hold on |
|
Down in a local bar out on the boulevard |
|
The sound of an old guitar |
|
Is saving you |
|
Don't turn away, dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Don't be afraid, but keep it all inside, all inside |
|
When you fall apart, dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Life is always hard, let me dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Don't turn turn away |
|
Let me dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Don't be afraid, but keep it all inside, all inside |
|
When you fall apart, let me dry your eyes, dry your eyes |
|
Life is always hard for the Belle of the Boulevard |
