Broughton-Mason |
|
I had words with Rudy down on the lot |
|
He couldn't help me out, it seems he forgot |
|
What my name was, he was one of my many shoulders |
|
Growing cold |
|
nothing to cry on or rely on for a friend |
|
CHORUS |
|
They call me the runaroud, happily holding her hand |
|
The best kept man in town, lead your lady around, |
|
runaround. |
|
I recall when half the world held her breath |
|
The letters of her name hung in mid-air |
|
But I woke up to a nightmare, and she follows me around, |
|
running gauntlets, staring haunted at the ground. |
|
CHORUS (repeat) |
|
Hang around in Romanoff's to be seen, |
|
friends pass by like I've never been. |
|
I remember party night, Halloween, |
|
I was Tambourlaine and she was my queen |
|
But the champagne and the wine stains and the friends |
|
who waived goodby, |
|
only echo as the wind blows, through the chandelier. |
|
CHORUS |
