It’s six in the morning the men started working
I can’t sleep, no I can’t sleep
I keep feeling the light so I think I should get up
And call you, gonna find you
And it’s fun, thinking of you like a movie star
And it’s dumb, thinking of you like the way that you were
Everyone loves you, the boy on the corner
The postman the policeman
It does me no good to keep looking ahead
To your future adoration
And it’s fun, thinking of you like a movie star
And it’s dumb, thinking of you like the way that you were
Every moment like a sudden pleasure
Every moment that will get you by
And it’s going to cause a crisis
Might just lose a little faith
I’ve seen all kind of strangers the rich and the famous
They don’t count no they don’t count
Now I’m back on my beat on the same greasy street
There’s an angel on my shoulder
Saying, ho!
Have you ever said an honest word?
Saying, yo!
Have you ever said a pretty word?
Every moment like a sudden pleasure
Every moment that will get you by
And it’s going to cause a crisis
Might just lose a little faith
Don’t touch me if you touch me you can never go back
Faith
Come on sister have a drink have a seat at the bar
Tell me all about your men and your hopes and the hours of your life
You can love
After all that’s what you’re looking for
You can love
It’s the currency unspoken of
But it’s hard to form a good opinion
If you’re going to look at me that way
And it’s going to cause a crisis
Might just lose a little faith
Don’t touch me if you touch me you can never go back
Faith
Come on sister have a drink have a seat at the bar
Tell me all about your men and your hopes and the hours of your life
