Yeah, I don't know if I'll ever see you again
Yeah, you look so lost I don't know where you've been
Can you tell me why you ran away and made the dark your life
Can I take you home and bring you in the light?

-Chorus-
You might think that your life won't ever get any better
And in a way that might be true
Workin' one more night will only make you redder
There ain't much more you can do
------

Yeah, the streets are so lonely they call your name
Yeah, why would you ever want to play their game?
People come and go and get their fix of what you offer them
Can I take you home because you'll never win?

-Chorus-

It's easy to see what's goin' on is purely mental
Take it from me, a middle class guy with the turnaround roundabout
Forget your shags, that Motel 6 will get you nowhere
Pack your bags and be on your way
