I was alone, I didn't know what would I do |
|
Maybe sing, maybe shave, maybe think things through |
|
Or hide behind drink or sleeping |
|
So I dreamt I was alone in a crowded place |
|
And I wanted to speak |
|
But I could not say |
|
'Cos Jackie's still sad about it |
|
And I'm the everyman I do my best to understand |
|
Oh it's a shame about you |
|
And though it happened long ago |
|
Don't forget what made me so mean and cruel |
|
It's a shame about you |
|
I'm alone and cold outside the gate |
|
Let me warm up for heaven's sake |
|
Don't show me no blind indifference |
|
The sound in my ears |
|
The breath in my nose |
|
Who wants to help? |
|
Ah nobody does |
|
And Jackie's still sad about it |
|
And I'm the everyman I do my best to understand |
|
Oh it's a shame about you, |
|
Though it happened long ago |
|
Please don't forget what made me so mean and cruel |
|
It's a shame about you |
|
Ah ah ah ah ah Jackie's still sad about it |
|
Jackie's still sad about it |
|
Repeat until the deed is done |
