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