I wish I had a penny For every time I told her I loved her But that sincerity I know won't raise the fare She was born with a wanderlust And against the odds she made the grade Now out of sight is out of mind to her I'm scared... It's a big bad big bad dead end world If I close my eyes I can't forget you, stranger In my sleep I see you dancing into danger Mister don't shoot her You can't see the whites for the reds of her eyes Maybe she's been crying over me While you're lying over her Talk of us is words in perfect tenses It seems that action men have broke down your defences We're pa**ing strangers But your leaving left me wondering why These times have changed us Caught in the middle of a big bad dead end world Caught in the middle of a big bad dead end world Friends rally round but it's not just a question of sympathy Others come and go why won't you come and go with me? We're pa**ing strangers But your leaving left me wondering why These times have changed us Caught in the middle of a big bad dead end world Caught in the middle of a big bad dead end world
