Cold Streets, grey town Early morning, no one around
Let's steal milk from a closed door We won't drink it But that's not what we do it for Walking around like a runaway kite These are the days of eternal nights
Say you were laughing at something When I saw you first time Such a model, what an actress I must confess I never thought that you'd be who you are, do what you do now
Cold streets, grey town It's bound to get or bring you down
Chorus: Lindy's party...Lindy's party We talk about Doharty Lindy's party
Hey you...Where you been lately Nothing-ing around in stately style Well your crew have changed But they still hang on every word They worship just the same
They worship just the same Now you tell me I don't live in the real world Say I will never understand Well your hair's still red You still got the same hands Who told you you were a country girl Who told you you were a country girl Well I know who it was
Say why do you look like you're in pain Why have your hands become how strange
Cold streets, grey town It's bound to get or bring you down
But I remember the way you used to use your eyes I remember your eyes and your thighs and The jet black tights you wore underneath your long blue shirt You bought secondhand to keep you dry on rainy nights So who told you you were a country girl Who told you you were a country girl Star-crossed lovers headed for disaster You took a lifetime on the morning after
