Living it up downtown, Your tongue a little loose. Tales of love and conquest You can't lose. The guy behind the counter Shakes his head at you, He's seen a lot of lucky faces Go from red to blue. Jim rolls in with the good new Like he's so good at doin' - Makin' wine outta water - Whistlin' a tune. You were too filled up to hear the song, Your cup was running over, You should have been running home. A town talks. Will you listening, are you wise enough to know Where to put your ears? Love walks. If you're not watching, you'll end up alone With all your talking tears. You framed your dreams together Over all these years, Smiling pictures in the hallway up above the stairs. The shadows in the corner Make it painfully clear She don't need your understanding She just wants you here. A town talks. Will you listening, are you wise enough to know Where to put your ears? Love walks. If you're not watching, you'll end up alone With all your talking tears. Tears. Living up downtown Your tongue a little loose. For all I hear you saying What's to say about you? A town talks. (x6)
