Lyrics

A NIGHT ON THE TOWN

Always known I’ve had a problem, to me it seemed so clear
That I’ve always lacked the confidence of one who’s suave and fearless
I pushed my way through the crowded room, my drink lies spilt across the floor
And my seat at the bar is taken, by a girl I’ve never seen before

When she turned to me I could have swore that she smiled
My desire could not be disguised
This girl endowed with such style
I could have sworn that she smiled

Was it just my imagination – alcoholic deception?
Should I try to say hello, should I make clear my intentions

It occurred to me, something’s just won’t ever change
If I spoke would she just turn away?
Would she even remember my name?

Instrumental

And I came to me, my luck won’t ever change
Like the walks home from town in the rain
Like that last bus that just never came
All these nights on the town are all the same
