joins the hallow sound of silent people walking down The stairway to the in the shadows down below Following their footsteps through the darkened corridors Of silent never speaking to a soul
The poison air breathing has a dirty smell of dying Cause it's seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain But minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes Of the of the turnstyle and the rattle of his chain
Oh she said, Casey it's been so long since seen you Here she said, just a kiss to make a body See she said, I put on new stockings to please you she said, Casey can you only stay a while
Casey the underground and stops inside the Golden Crown For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the men Who reach for anything thay can to keep going home
Standing in the corner drinks his pint of bitter Never glancing in the at the people passin' by And he stumbles as he's and he wonders if the reason Is the that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye
Oh she said, I you seldom think about me Now she said, now you've a family of your own she said, it's so blessed good to feel your body Lord she said, it's a shame to be alone
Oh she said, Casey it's been so long I've seen you Here she said, just a kiss to make a smile See she said, I put on new stockings to please you Lord she said, Casey can you only a while Lord she said, Casey it's a to be alone
