Living it up downtown
Your tongue a little loose
Tales of love and conquest
You can't lose
The guy behind the counter
Shakes his head at you
He's seen a lot of lucky faces
Go from red to blue
Jim rolls in with the good new
Like he's so good at doin' -
Makin' wine outta water -
Whistlin' a tune
You were too filled up to hear the song
Your cup was running over
You should have been running home
A town talks
Will you listening, are you wise enough to know
Where to put your ears?
Love walks
If you're not watching, you'll end up alone
With all your talking tears
You framed your dreams together
Over all these years
Smiling pictures in the hallway up above the stairs
The shadows in the corner
Make it painfully clear
She don't need your understanding
She just wants you here
A town talks
Will you listening, are you wise enough to know
Where to put your ears?
Love walks
If you're not watching, you'll end up alone
With all your talking tears
Tears
Living up downtown
Your tongue a little loose
For all I hear you saying
What's to say about you?
A town talks. (x6)
