St. Mark's Place

East village loft

Naked and unfurnished

As the day we came

In stripes of God

The private school kids

Run St. Mark's Place

And no one seemed to mind

At all

You said you don't give up

But your gloves are hanging up

You want to cut and run

The minute the going gets tough

You said you believe in love

You said you're strong enough

But you want to cut and run

The mintute the going gets tough

I can see it now

Up to my knees

I watch the moon

Floating at my feet

You're fast asleep

The wind is singing

Old songs to me

But I want to stick it out

You said you don't give up

But your gloves are hanging up

You want to cut and run

The minute the going gets tough

I miss the tour bus

Bunk beds we double up

You want to cut and run

The minute the going gets tough

I can see it now

The light's gone out

The light's gone out

The light's gone out

The light's gone out

On Houston Street

We're making noise

In a crowded room

For Halloween

We come up with our costumes in June

But we never follow through

At all

I know I fucked it up

But you said you're strong enough

You want to cut and run

The minute the going gets tough

Can't run with the hare and hunt

Fault lies with both of us

But you want to cut and run

The very minute the going gets tough

I can see it now

The light's gone out

The light's gone out

The light's gone out

The light's gone out

The light's gone out
