I've been to town |
|
I've walked the highways and the harbors too |
|
I've done some things I never thought I'd ever do |
|
Now as I stand here looking down at you |
|
You ask me how it is I frown |
|
I guess that's cause I've been to town |
|
I've been to town |
|
Beyond the boulevards and down the beach |
|
I've learned some things that only time can teach |
|
For instance: Love is more than just a speech |
|
It's got to find a common ground |
|
I know, because I've been to town |
|
Don't tell me any more lies |
|
I can't waste any more years |
|
I've seen my image in your eyes |
|
Dissolve in disappointed tears |
|
I've been to town |
|
You ask me, do I know the Milky Way? |
|
I do, and furthermore I'd like to say |
|
It isn't milky-white, it's dingy-grey |
|
Especially when your world breaks down |
|
I know, because I've been to town |
