Casey joins the hallow sound of silent people down The stairway to the subway in the down below Following their footsteps the neon darkened corridors Of desperation never speaking to a soul
The poison air breathing has a dirty smell of dying Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's felt the rain But minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes Of the clicking of the turnstyle and the rattle of his
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 just to please you Lord she said, Casey can you stay a while
Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the Golden For something wet to wipe away the chill on his bones Seeing his in the lives of all the lonely men Who reach for anything can to keep from going home
Standing in the corner Casey his pint of bitter Never glancing in the mirror at the people 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 you seldom think about me Now she said, now that a family of your own Still she said, it's so blessed good to feel your Lord she said, Casey a shame to be alone
Oh she said, it's been so long since I've seen you she said, just a kiss to make a body smile See she said, I put on new stockings just to you Lord she said, can you only stay a while Lord she said, Casey it's a to be alone
