There you go again, blowing smoke at some sucker'Cause you knew you couldAnd I'm sure he's alright when he's underneath the right lightAnd, hey, at least his hair looks goodAll the downtown boys, they might make a lotta noiseBut they all talk the sameAnd, sure, he could be the pretty thing at the end of your stringBut he ain't worth much more than his nameSo if you wanna look lonesome, you better get it rightHang your head and fade into another nowhere nightI did my time downtown and I'll say this about timeIt goes byBack then it was just something that passed betweenFeeling hungry and getting highI used to walk around like they built the whole damn townUp around me when my back was turnedThen the ground gave way and I spent a couple daysFace down in everything I had learnedThere was no great revelation, there was no blinding lightI just stopped sinking in to those nowhere nightsSo I left downtown with the stains of lust and the shards of loveStill covering my feetAnd I read the book of longing and I followed the paradeBack down to boogie streetLetras de cancionesNow, I'd speak of my despair and the pulse that isn't thereBut it just wouldn't be the truth'Cause most of the time I can fall asleep just fineAnd I don't even wonder about youWe can talk about it now but I was never one to fightIt feels about as desperate as those nowhere nightsSo you made up your mindYou're gonna be the downtown darlingMight as well throw yourself into it, honeyMake it your callingAnd you can keep your friends amused with all the ugly words you useWhen you start to describeAll the different shades of blue that came crashing down on youWhen you were nothing to me but the meantimeIf you got any pride left, honey, you'd better keep it out of sightOr you're gonna lose it out there in those nowhere nights From Letras Mania
