Whistle for the Choir

Well, it's a big, big city and it's always the same

Can never be too pretty, tell me your name

Is it out of line if I was to be bold and say

Would you be mine?

Because I may be a beggar and you may be the queen

I know I may be on a downer, I'm still ready a dream

Though it's three o'clock

The time is just the time it takes for you to talk

So if you're lonely

Why'd you say you're not lonely?

Oh, you're a silly girl

I know, I heard it so

It's just like you to come and go

And know me, no, you don't even know me

You're so sweet to try

Oh my, you've caught my eye

A girl like you's just irresistible

Well, it's a big, big city and the lights are all out

But it's as much as I can do, you know I'll figure you out

And I must confess

My heart's all broken pieces and my head's a mess

And it's four in the morning and I'm walkin' along

Beside the ghost of every drinker here who's ever done wrong

And it's you, woo-hoo

That's got me goin' crazy for the things you do

And so, if you're crazy

I don't care, you amaze me

But you're a stupid girl

Oh me, oh my, you talk, I die

You smile, you laugh, I cry

And only a girl like you could be lonely

And it's a crying shame

If you would think the same

A boy like me's just irresistible

So if you're lonely

Why'd you say you're not lonely?

Oh, you're a silly girl

I know, I heard, it's so

It's just like you to come and go

And know me, no, you don't even know me

You're so sweet to try

Oh my, you've caught my eye

A girl like you's just irresistible
