Streetcar is rusting

The tracks are all gone

You're far too trusting

But I won't take long

Old friends of someone

Lie dead in the street

The back scene director

Knows just who I'll meet



No visions of my life

Will flash past my eyes

I've waited thousands of years

For this prize

Someone is calling

But who's left alive

Just me and you dear

Please show some surprise

I've always been this way

Please believe me



Yellowed newspapers

Drift past empty cabs

Dead hotel bellboys

Dream of old men they've had

Ex-junkies in my house

Are all blue and green

Please don't cry. I love you

I'm not what I seem



Isn't it lovely

It's just you and me

I've never felt

So happy to be here

Look through my window

At the hole in my wall

Straight into my head

There's nobody at all



Do you think you can love me

I am no-one



If you were the only girl in the world

And I was the only boy

(repeat six times)
