Walking (To The Edge Of Town Tonight)
She seems to speak to me
in some alien language.
I'm sitting on the corner,
I'm feeling strangled.
But I can't respond
to some imaginary kiss.
She's taking advantage
of this mysteriousness.
So I'm walking
to the edge of town tonight.
The moon looks like a skull
in the sky tonight.
I'm walking
to the edge of town tonight.
I know the Underground's
got something going on tonight.
It was there at the coffee shop,
I still had my old job as the bell hop.
She told her story,
I wasn't listening.
She smiled in the air,
I'm afraid to tell her I care,
she was bringing me down
and her eyes were glistening
.
I'm walking
to the edge of town tonight.
I see a blue moon over the water,
electric glide.
I'm walking
to the edge of town tonight.
I don't know what I'll do
when I get there
but it'll be on tonight.
Right on.
She dances in many colors,
almost put me in her spell.
Just like easy money,
she seems to spin so well.
But I can't respond
because she's already gone.
She's opened the door and it won't long.
I'm walking
to the edge of town tonight.
I see a neon light flashing
just out of sight.
I'm walking
to the edge of town tonight.
I don't know how I'll get there
but when I do
it'll be all right, right on.
Can't you hear me making sounds?
