Verse 1

-------

I wander the lonely streets...

Behind where the old Thames does flow.

And in every face I meet...

Reminds me of what I have run for.

------

In every man, in every hand,

In every kiss you understand,

That living is for other men,

I hope you too understand...

Verse 2

-------

I've got to tell you my tale...

Of how I loved and how I failed...

I hope you understand?

These feelings should not be in the man.

------

In every child, in every eye,

In every sky above my head...

I hope that I know,

So come with me in bed.

------

Because its you and me we're history

There ain't nothing left to say

When I...will get you alone...

Verse 3

-------

Maybe we could find a room?

Where we could see what we should do...

Maybe you know its true?

Well, living with me is like keeping a fool.

------

In every man, in every hand,

In every kiss you understand,

That living is for other men,

I hope you know that I am me...

Chorus (Reprise)

----------------

So come on, I'm thinking about history,

And I'm living for history,

And I think you know I'm bound for you,

Cause I am...

Bridge (Reprise)

----------------

And one and one is two, but three is company

When you're thinking about the things you do,

And you're thinking about the things you do...

Verse 4

-------

I wanna tell you my tale...

How I fell in love and jumped out on my bail...

Do you understand?

There's more in a smile that in a hand.

------

In every sky, in every kiss

There's one thing that you've might have missed

Oh, why am I going to a place that now belongs to you?

------

But you and me, and so am I

Lets make it up

Lets even try to live today, so why not smile?

Don't dream away your life...

Middle 8

--------

Cause it is mine...

It is mine...

Is that a crime?

Is that a crime?

This life is mine, but the bed ain't made,

Its filled full of hope, I've got a skinfull of dope...

Oh, the bed ain't made,

But its filled full of hope, I've got a skinfull of dope...
