History

I wander 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 livin' is for other men, I hope you do understand

I've gotta tell you my tale

Of how I loved and how I failed

I hope you understand

All these feelin's 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

It's you and me, we're history, there ain't nothin' left to say

When I will get you alone

Maybe we could find a room

Where we could see what we should do

Maybe you know it's true

Livin' with me is like keepin' a fool

In every man, in every hand, in every kiss you understand

That livin' is for other men, I hope you know that I am me

So come on, I'm thinkin' about history

And I'm livin' for history and I think you know about me 'cause I am

And one and one is two but three is company

When you're thinkin' about the things you do

And you're thinkin' about the things you do

I wanna tell you my tale

And how I fell in love and jumped out on my bail

Do you understand?

There's more in a smile than in a hand

In every sky, in every kiss, there's one thing that you might've missed

And why am I goin' to a place that now belongs to you?

But you were mean and so am I, let's pick it up, let's even try

To live today so why not smile? Don't dream away your life

'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

It's filled full of hope, I've got a skin full of dope

Oh, the bed ain't made, but it's filled full of hope

I've got skin full of dope
