The night hangs its coat on the sunset
The lights put a mask on the town
Everyone's safe in their prison
Come on down
It's been goodbye since you told me
Your life was movin' you on
Everyone's had their own rainbow
Some are gone
Livin' on the turn of somebody's card
That ain't a very good way
It ain't so very good
To start on a new day
Livin' on the edge is so very hard
That ain't a very good way
It ain't so very good
To start on a new day
The dawn closes down all the players
They sneak into alleys and hide
Everyone's waitin' for darkness
Down inside
I taste the rain that is comin'
The bottom line's never that far
Everyone's tight in their places
There they are
Livin' on the turn of somebody's card...
