While you were out
The message says
You left a number
And I tried to call
But they wrote it down
In a perfect Spanish scrawl
Perfect Spanish scrawl
Yet again
I'm missing you
King size bed
In a hotel someplace
I hear your name
I see your face (2x)
The back street dolls
And the side door Johnnies
The wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley
Going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail
Of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be
So high I know
If the times gone by
Hadn't been so low
The best laid plans
Come apart at the seams
And shatter all my dreams
Sometimes I feel like screaming
Close my eyes
It's times like this
My head goes down
And the only thing I know
Is the name of this town?
Name of this town?
Yet again
I'm missing you
Won't be long
O' coming home
Until that distant time
I'll be moving on (2x)
The back street dolls
And the side door Johnnies
The wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley
Going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail
Of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be
So high I know
If the times gone by
Hadn't been so low
The best laid plans
Come apart at the seams
And shatter all my dreams
(4x)
Full of money
The back street dolls
And the side door Johnnies
The wide eyed boys with their bags full of money
Back in the alley
Going bang to the wall
Tied to the tail
Of a midnight crawl
Heaven wouldn't be
So high I know
If the times gone by
Hadn't been so low
The best laid plans
Come apart at the seams
And shatter all my dreams
