Avenue 'a' Lyrics - Anthology 1980-1987 - Tom Cochrane

You want to be an actress 

And step down on the stage 

You are going to the school juliard 

To learn how to strut so high and proud 

Make me stand up and notice 

That you are not afraid 

I believe in you 

And I believe you'll have it made 

I cut out my heart 

And nail it away 

Save it for your summer holiday 

You'll forget about me 

When your name is on the marquee 

And the rich boys come out to play 

Upon Avenue "A" 

You've got your reasons 

And I've got mine 

I'll nail your cards and letter on the wall 

To remind me that you are still out there

Because I won't know the girl on the screen at all 

Cut out my heart 

And nail it away 

And save it for your summer holiday 

You'll forget about me 

When your name is on the marquee 

And your up on Avenue "A" 

Cut out my heart 

And nail it away 

And save it for your summer holiday 

Teach them how to laugh and feel 

When they put you to the test 

For there is something special in you 

That you must express 

Don't forget about me 

When your name is on the marquee 

And the rich men come to stay 

Up on Avenue "A" 

Up on Avenue "A"
