I saw the best of my generation playing pinball. Make-up on, all caked up. Looking like some kind of china doll. With all of Adolf Hitler's moves down cold.
I'm hanging on, I'm hurting. I'm backing down, you're starting over. You and I, we've had enough. The wrong side of love. . Even if my heart was burning.
Face the day and face the night. Hold you close and hold you tight. Did I keep you satisfied. Or did I let you down?. . Bullet trains and aeroplanes. Blow in from the south.
You need a reason for the things I do. I need a miracle to see me through. I'll give you everything I got inside. If you just stay here tonight. . My hands are tied and I've been rolling the dice.
Down on third avenue. The singer's singin' the blues. And I got nothin' to lose. I'm just comin' back for you. . Well, life is a sign of the times. Man, faith is a sight for the blind.
