Walked you to the corner, we stood beside the bus
And the tears rolled down our faces as the driver stared at us
Typical summer, that time of year
When you go back to Toronto and I stay here
And Ill miss the way you wake up
And the way that you sigh
And Ill miss the way you turn your head away when you cry
I dont think this time will fly
And here comes sad nights again
Here comes the sad nights again
'Round about midnight when its still too hot to think
Well go back down to the neighborhood, get ourselves a drink
Everyday workin', not gettin' too far
You know this town aint much for startin' up, its only made for stars
Later when Im walkin' underneath the starless sky
Theres a couple in the doorway
And I think I hear them cry
But they turn their heads when I go by
Here comes the sad nights again
Here comes the sad nights again
Last days of summer San Gennaro Feast
Theres music hangin' in the air, dancin' in the streets
People line the corners and they stand beside the fires
And Im watchin' from my window as the sparks go by
Somewhere theres a gunshot
People scatter everywhere
But it happens everyday so theres still laughter in the air
And as I lay down, I wish you were here
And here comes sad nights again
Here comes the sad nights again
Here comes the sad nights again
