When the winds blow cold. Am I left alone. To remember times gone by. Was it all in vain. Did the faces change. And I never questioned why. Now the answer's clear.
Sometimes when I'm down on my luck, feelin' dizzy. My mind reels back to those days in the city. When early in the morning take a trip, it's so pretty.
Sometimes late when things are real. And the people share the gift of gab between themselves. Some are quick to take the bait. And catch the perfect prize that waits among the shelves.
Sitting by the fireside with a book in your hand. Two lazy dogs sittin' watchin' your man. Three roses were bought with you in mind. Three roses were bought with you in mind.
Living on the riverside taking it all in my stride. Living on the riverside, I'm taking life like a big long ride. You stay on your side and I'll stay on mine.
Ain't it foggy outside?. All the planes have been grounded. Ain't the fire inside?. Let's all go stand around it. . Funny, I've been there and you've been here.
Window frames a picture of winter time. Within my room. Sometimes then I laugh at the funny times. We had in school. . Blowing leaves, broken dreams. Seventeen, dancing queen, dancing queen.
Someone told me you got to be free. Someone told me to stand in the rear. Keep on searchin' for kings in the street. Keep on cryin' for something that's clear.
Well, I had me a pigeon. By the name of Fred. But I done shot him. In the head. . Had me a railroad. Down on the ridge. But I done blowed up. The bridge.
For the last time. I watched Old Man Took bait his hook. And then throw his line. Pick up his wine. . He's a friend of mine. Known him all my life and his wife.
The moon begins to rise upon my fallen eyes. I'm taken back to firelight. A drunken dreamer's plan to stay just as I am. Amidst the dancing paradise. .
First she says "Kings". Then he says "Aces". It gets pretty hard for a lady to tell. The hearts from the faces. . Don't be afraid I know I will bring you home.
Midnight rolling in, sunlight. Reaching out for your return. As you were running. Through the tunnel of life. And soon you'll dance around. The fire of fright tonight.
I came home yesterday. To the love that I left behind. It seems I've been far away, yeah. . But I know that the berry's ripe on the vine. And I know that the grapes will soon turn to wine.
You have one letter left to send. With no beginning and no end. You saw them in the park. The laughter in the dark, oh no. How can you face him and pretend.
Orange and yellow and purple and green. The lights of the city at night set the scene. Stumble through the bars of forget-me-not lane. Sparkle through the glitter but don't show the pain.
You, can I make it known?. I'd like to take you home. You been away so long. I'd like to see you. . When I saw you at the local hop. I tried to take you but you made me stop.
When the deep blue night is running close on your track. And you can feel the green monkey crawlin' across your back. Don't take me so real that you forget how to feel.

The waves come in. Crash on the shoreline. Salty water, don't you know. It's yours, yours and mine. So grab your girl. And don't go wastin' time. And let's go down to the water tonight.
