Lovers come and lovers go But it's never twice the same Happiness is hard to show When you're numb to all the pain And I've been floatin' 'round Like an old newspaper Blowin' down some windy street Feeling so alone and incomplete
But there's nowhere to hide Where the night can't find me Where the light of the sun can't blind me Like the light in a woman's eyes There's nowhere to hide From the dream that drives me Like a fire burning deep inside me Oh, I know she'll be there tonight
Can the future be foretold In a faded photograph Can a dream be bought and sold Well, I guess I have to laugh Sippin' on a scotch and soda A shadow in the corner booth So philosophic and drunk on grown-up truth
But there's nowhere to hide Where the night can't find me Where the light of the sun can't blind me Like the light in a woman's eyes There's nowhere to hide From the dream that drives me Like a fire burning deep inside me Oh, I know she'll be there tonight
Half-forgotten fragments Of a high school dance In the dead white hours of winter When we loved so hard That we thought it would never end Tryin' to remember How it used to feel When a kiss was something special And I wonder now Will it ever be again
But there's nowhere to hide Where the night can't find me Where the light of the sun can't blind me Like the light in a woman's eyes There's nowhere to hide From the dream that drives me Like a fire burning deep inside me Oh, I know she'll be there tonight
Lovers come and lovers go But it's never twice the same Happiness is hard to show When you're numb to all the pain And I've been floatin' round Like an old newspaper Blowin' down some windy street Feeling so alone and incomplete
But there's nowhere to hide Where the night can't find me Where the light of the sun can't blind me Like the light in a woman's eyes There's nowhere to hide From the dream that drives me Like a fire burning deep inside me Oh, I know she'll be there tonight
