100 Nights Lyrics - Singles - Marillion

A hundred nights of fun and games 

A thousand empty glasses 

I feel it change 

And stay the same 

As each day passes 

They invite me to their gatherings 

In the finer parts of town 

They seem attracted to my indifference 

The irony just knocks me out 

And I love them as if I love them 

And they reciprocate with "help" 

But I look up at these mirrors sometimes 

And I can't see myself 

They say that some are born to burn 

And some are born to give 

They say that people live and learn 

Some people only live and live 

You don't know that I come here 

But if you did, you would know why 

So we close our eyes 

You didn't notice me 

As I passed you on the stairs 

How could you ever guess 

Looking at my face 

How closely I share your taste 

How well I know your place 

Even the clothes you wear 

I've seen them when you're not there 

You say that you can win win win 

If you know how to play the game 

But while you're out there playing you see 

There's something you should know 

She spends your money 

She spends your money on me
