Thomas-Colbeck The city streets are all closing in No place to hide from that cold cold wind Down here on the ground people rush around Running home before night begins But I just walk round 'cause this ain't my town It's darker now and it feels like rain The wind blows hard, all the shopfronts strain There are neon signs showing date and time The people cram in those rush hour trains But I just walk round 'cause this ain't my town I've tried all the city bars, this place could be Mars, I feel so alone I've seen every movie show, I stay till they close, I'm so far from home The French I learnt at school don't help me at all, I feel so alone So alone - I don't have the money to Telephone - if I had my way I would Run for home - there's no chance of that so I'm On my own - wishing that I could be Flying home - if only I could I would Try to phone - I'm cold and I'm tired and I'm So alone The rain comes quick, I find the nearest bar Just one small beer, I know it won't go far Too much time to drink, too much time to think I never thought that it would be so hard But I just walk round 'cause this ain't my town I've tried all the city bars, this place could be Mars, I feel so alone I've seen every movie show, I stay till they close, I'm so far from home The French I learnt at school don't help me at all, I feel so alone So alone - I don't have the money to Telephone - if I had my way I would Run for home - there's no chance of that so I'm On my own - wishing that I could be Flying home - if only I could I would Try to phone - I'm cold and I'm tired and I'm So alone
