Talking all the talk that makes me feel strong

Going all the places where smiles greet me

Can't get it through my head

That i did nothing wrong

It would be easier if i had myself to blame

But it's pouring rain under my umbrella



Chorus:

I tried walking around,

'round these streets by myself

Said "pretty girl don't look down"

But i could look no place else

The smiles, the bed, the telephone

And still i can't make him see

And i can't call this life my own

Cause i'm not where i want to be



Going out with the girls on a saturday night

Reaching out to strangers

So i don't feel deeply moved

Yeah they're my friends and i like them alright

But they can't do the things that we used to do

So i've got to say that i miss you baby



Chorus



It's amazing how one little broken heart

Can radiate so much pain

Some guy looked at me and then he turned away

Saw my eyes sayin' i will never fall again



Don't look down

But i could look no place else

The smiles, the bed, the telephone

Still i can't make him see

I can't call my life my own

Cause i'm not where i want to be



I tried walking around,

By myself

Said "pretty girl don't look down"

But i could look no place else

The smiles, the bed, the telephone

Still i can't make him see

I can't call this life my own

Cause i'm not where i want to be



'round these streets by myself

Said "pretty girl don't look down"

But i could look no place else

The smiles, the bed, the telephone

And still i can't make him see

I can't call this life my own

Cause i'm not where i want to be



No, i'm not where i want to be

Oh noo, no no

No, i'm not where i want to be

No, i'm not where i want to be

Oh no, i'm not where i want to be

No, i'm not where i want to be

No, i'm not where i want to be

No no, i'm not where i want to be

I tried walking around,

'round these streets by myself

Said "pretty girl don't look down"

But i could look no place else

The smiles, the bed, the telephone

And still i can't make him see

And i can't call this life my own

Cause i'm not where i want to be
