The kids ´round here look just like sticks They trade old licks with a beat up six I just smile and catch the groove
Gothic girls all dress in black Serious as heart attacks It takes a little bit of getting used to
The old man with the whiskey stains Lost the night forgot his name His poor wife will sleep alone again And it ain´t hard to understand Why she´s holding on to her own hand
Chorus: It´s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea No one´s asking me for favors No one´s looking for a savior They´re too busy saving me
(Repeat Chorus)
I´ve seen a lone,sloane ranger drive seems her chauffeur took a dive And sold her secrets to the sun And later in a magazine I finally figured what it means To be a saint, not a queen
Two lustful lovers catch a spark And chase their shadows in the dark Someone´s getting off tonight Of a big red bus that´s packed so tight It disappears in a trail of light Somewhere someone´s dreaming baby it´s all right...
Chorus: It´s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea
No one´s asking me for favors No one´s looking for a savoir They´re too busy saving me Midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea No one´s pinned the dreams on me No one´s asking me to bleed I´m the man I want to be When Chelsea girls sing...
It´s morning when I go to sleep In the distant dawn a church bell rings Another day is coming on A baby´s born, an old man dies Somewhere young lovers kiss good-bye I leave my soul and just move on And wish that I was there to sing this song
Chorus:
It´s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea No one´s asking me for favors No one´s looking for a savior They´re too busy saving me
It´s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea No one´s pinned the dreams on me No one´s asking me to bleed I´m the man I want to be The man I want to be,the man I want to be Midnight in Chelsea
