Party girls between the sheets
She can't show that much to me
I'd rather drink until I see
Angels tonight
I had a girl I thought was mine
I wised up and just in time
Such wisdom makes these sluts look like
Angels tonight
As we collide as the lights go out
There's someone else she thinks about
It's all for the best that I can't figure out
Angels tonight

well, she'll be leavin today i do know
so far away
i'm feelin so blue and it shows
in every single way
once that girl, she was mine
for such a short time
we used to spend every night
now all i do is cry
they say, that you can't miss,
somethin that you've never had
so tell me why,
why i could feel so bad
well we used to walk down the path
just like lovers do
she'd hold my hand and we'd laugh
and i'd stare in her eyes - they were blue, ooh
once that girl she was mine
for such a short time
we used to spend every night
now all i do is cry
they say, that you can't miss
somethin' that you've never had
so tell me, why
why i should feel so bad...

The fireworks from the rooftops fall down around this hotel
So tell it seems like so long since I've had you beside me here
We used to walk together
I've nothing to show me now and it seems like so long
Since I've had you beside me here
Well he's got ropes and chains all around her heart
And nothing I can say could ever tear them apart
Her mumbles come now softly
From the other side of this room
And the things she won't say
Just reminds she's not alone
Well I can't help but feeling a little more than blue
Cause the things that matter just don't mean a damn to you
Well he's got ropes and chains all around her heart
And nothing I can say could ever tear them apart
The fireworks from the roofs all fall down around you
So tell it seems like so long since I've had you beside me here
Lets a walk together
I've nothing to show me now and it seems like so long
Since I've had you beside me here
Well he's got ropes and chains all around her heart
And nothing I can say could ever tear them apart...

All last summer, in case you don't recall,
I was yours and you were mine
Forget it all
Is there a line that I could write
That's sad enough to make you cry?
All the lines you wrote to me were lies
Months roll past the love that you struck dead
Did you love me only in my head?
The things you said and did to me
They seem to come so easily
The love I thought I'd won
You give for free
Whispers at the bus stop
Well, I've heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
I found out about you
Rumors follow everywhere you go
Like when you left and I was last to know
Well you're famous now and there's no doubt
In all the places you hang out
They know your name and they know what you're about
Whispers at the bus stop
Well, I've heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
I found out about you
Hey
Street lights blink on through the car window
I get the time too often on AM Radio
Well you know it's all I think about
I write your name drive past your house
Your boyfriend's over I watch your lights go out
Whispers at the bus stop
Well, I've heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
I found out about you
Whispers at the bus stop
Well, I've heard about nights out in the school yard
I found out about you
I found out about you
I found out about you

It was dark and cool
She said I didn't know all the rules
She made her mind up fast
She took a walk and she didn't come back
Girls can't wait...
Girls can't wait
Now I'm all alone
Four empty walls and a telephone
All I know right now is girls can't wait...
Everyone should know
Life ain't no picture show
You'll lose your place in line
You'll end up in the life's back row
Girls can't wait
Now I'm all alone
Four empty walls and a telephone
All I know right now is girls can't wait...
I'm just marking time
I hold court with some friends of mine
I think I love that girl
I'm thinking that I could change her mind
Girls can't wait...
Girls can't wait
Now I'm all alone
Four empty walls and a telephone
All I know right now is girls can't wait...

Well tell me do you think it'd be alright
If I could just crash here tonight
You can see I'm in no shape for driving
Anyway I've got no place to go
And you know it might not be that bad
You were the best I'd ever had
If I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago
I may not be alone
Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And let the cops chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found to take its place
Hey Jealousy
Hey Jealousy
Hey Jealousy
Hey Jealousy
You can trust me not to think
And not to sleep around
And if you don't expect too much from me
You might not be let down
'Cause all I really want is to be with you
Feeling like I matter too
If I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago
I might be here with you
Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And let the cops chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found to take its place
Hey Jealousy
Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And let the cops chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found to take its place
Hey Jealousy
Hey Jealousy
Hey Jealousy
Hey Jealousy
Well tell me do you think it'd be alright
If I could just crash here tonight
You can see I'm in no shape for driving
And anyway I've got no place to go
And you know it might not be that bad
You were the best I'd ever had
If I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago
I may not be alone
Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And let the cops chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found to take its place
Hey Jealousy
Hey Jealousy
You know she took my heart
Well there's only one thing I couldn't start

She can be anywhere she wants to be tonight
In the arms of another man I know
But that won't bring me down on the night I've got tonight
There's nothing there, can you understand at all???
Cause I can sleep without you...
I've got no reason to doubt it
I can't live without it
I ain't in no big hurry
My life ain't filled with worries
Lots of men tie themselves in knots all over you
That's something I promised myself I'd never ever do
Cause life's too short to go on living with this sin
Cause I saw a pretty face and you know I'd cave right in
Cause I can sleep without you...
Well I've got no reason to doubt it
I can't live without it
I ain't in no big hurry
But I've been filled with worries
Well she can be anywhere she wants to be tonight
In the arms of another man I know
But that won't bring me down on the night I've got tonight
There's nothing there, can you understand at all???
Cause I can sleep without you...
Well I've got no reason to doubt it
I can't live without it
I ain't in no big hurry
But I've been filled with worries
I can I can I can sleep without you...

I walked home to the sun
I couldn't ride another one
I thought a lot along the lines
And I've been fooled about all night
Wiped clean always by midnight
Wasn't it like an idiot summer...
Three, four peaks all I could see
In the morning it's a hundred and ten degrees
But I like the goddamn heat
I lie awake half the night
Autumn is coming it seems like it's in sight
All the autumn that you can see
All the autumn that you can see
It's growing darker like the trees
But if all the trees should fall
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep
and then it's cold
It's growing darker like the trees
But if all the trees should fall
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep
and then it's cold
There's no telling I was so confused
I try but I can't help you choose
Tucson is so far away
I lie awake half the night
Autumn is coming it seems like it's in sight
Wasn't it like an idiot summer...

She came to L.A. all the way from Boston town
She wound up on the screen where I saw her goin' down
Now I can't see you, I can't see you at all
No I don't know you, I don't know you at all
I bought her films, yeah I bought all her magazines
And I watched her every move until I saw her in my dreams
Now I can't stand it, see you caught from behind
No I don't know you, girl you gotta be mine
Keli Richards come on...
Well I bought a gun, there's just one thing left to do
Now I can't make up my mind it comes down to me or you
Now I can't see you, I can't see you at all
No I don't know you, I don't know you at all
Keli Richards come on...

The last horizons I can see are filled with bars and factories
and in them all we fight to stay awake...
Drink enough of anything to make this world look new again
Drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves
She had nothing left to say so she said she loved me
I stood there grateful for the lie...
Drink enough of anything to make this girl look new again
Drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves
Turn summer trees to bones and ice
Turn insect songs against the night
With words we build and words we break
I'm drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves...
Maybe I could use you to reassure myself
I wouldn't wish this indecision on anybody else
Drink enough of anything to make this world look new again
And when the sin smiles how could it be wrong
The last horizons I could see are now resigned to memories
I never thought I'd still be here today...
Drink enough of anything to make myself look new again
Drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves

I've been trying for so long
Trying to forget
The ports of northern Africa and the man I met
He said he had a daughter
Maybe I could meet her
He thought I was a trader
Oh, that was how I met
That slave dealer's daughter
Her eyes were black her hair was raven
Her skin was soft and brown
Eighteen years she looked a woman
I thought she'd been around
She'd never met a jailbird???
I knew that she was lonely
She offered me her body
So I fell in love
With that slave dealer's daughter
Her father's men came after me
Trying to hunt me down
For three long years I've hid my face
And run from town to town
She never met a jailbird
I knew that she was lonely
She offered me her body
So I fell in love
With that slave dealer's daugther...

She could be anywhere at all
I know I'm heading for a fall
Well I want to see her every night
I make a wish and hold her tight
I want to wake up next to her
But I know there's something wrong
We used to have all kinds of things
Now I know the pain heartache can bring
Well I want to see her every night
I make a wish and hold her tight
I want to wake up next to her
But I know there's something wrong
'Cause I can be waiting around all the time
I'll wait for that girl
She could be anywhere at all
I know I'm heading for a fall
Well I want to see her every night
I make a wish and hold her tight
I want to wake up next to her
But I know there's something wrong...
