The teacher don't teach me and the preacher don't reach me
They never could get through
They ain't talking to me, they're just blowing right through me
Nothing to hold on to
I work every minute, there ain't no future in it
It's about to wear me down
And a night with the boys is a head full of noises
And a room spinning round
Then there's you
The only one who
Lights me up like a spark in the dark
When you do what you do
The people are talking and the radio's squawking
They don't make sense to me
The stuff that they're selling and the story's they're telling
Like one and one makes three
There's women around me, I ain't saying they hound me
But some are looking fine
The air's full of voices and the night's full of choices
Still I walk the line
Because of you
The only one who
Lights me up like a spark in the dark
When you do what you do
Then there's you,
The only one who
Lights me up like a spark in the dark
When you do what you do
Yeah, you
The only one who
Lights me up like a spark in the dark
When you do what you do
