lyrics
LONELINESS IN YOUR CHARM
It’s a long way down
when you’re the king of the town
and you feel it’s all about to end
so long, my friend I’ll see you again
you shouldn’t take it personally
With a switchblade knife
that look in your eye
the rumble was about to start
come all this way to make a play
and watch it all fall apart
The melody plays on
the rhythm, never stops
close your eyes and realize
the loneliness in your charm
A room with a view a table for two
The romance was in her eyes
you take her hand, you make a stand and dance away into the night.
The Melody plays on
the rhythm, never stops
close your eyes, and realize
the loneliness in your charm.
The moment it starts
Two minutes later it’s falling apart
You couldn’t save it
so you made an escape
no one to save you
you figured it out It’s a long road toVegas
You take it apart
You couldn’t change it
so you’re calling it art
the image is fading
so you made an escape
no one to save you
but the loneliness in your charm Loneliness in your charm
You ought to know by now
You couldn’t take it anywhere baby
You understand and how
Your overrated your off the charts
The moment it starts
Two minutes later it’s falling apart
you couldn’t save it
so made an escape
no one to save you
You figured it out It’s a long road toVegas.
You taken it alert you couldn’t change so you’re calling it Art the image is fading so you made an escape
No one to save you
but the loneliness in your charm
The loneliness in your charm
The loneliness in your charm
