Talking all the talk that makes me feel strong
going all the places where smiles greet me
canand't get it through my head
that i did nothing wrong
it would be easier if i had myself to blame
but itand's pouring rain under my umbrella
Chorus:
i tried walking around,
and'round these streets by myself
said andquot;pretty girl donand't look downandquot;
but i could look no place else
the smiles, the bed, the telephone
and still i canand't make him see
and i canand't call this life my own
cause iand'm not where i want to be
Going out with the girls on a saturday night
reaching out to strangers
so i donand't feel deeply moved
yeah theyand're my friends and i like them alright
but they canand't do the things that we used to do
so iand've got to say that i miss you baby
Chorus
Itand's amazing how one little broken heart
can radiate so much pain
some guy looked at me and then he turned away
saw my eyes sayinand' i will never fall again
Donand't look down
but i could look no place else
the smiles, the bed, the telephone
still i canand't make him see
i canand't call my life my own
cause iand'm not where i want to be
I tried walking around,
by myself
said andquot;pretty girl donand't look downandquot;
but i could look no place else
the smiles, the bed, the telephone
still i canand't make him see
i canand't call this life my own
cause iand'm not where i want to be
and'round these streets by myself
said andquot;pretty girl donand't look downandquot;
but i could look no place else
the smiles, the bed, the telephone
and still i canand't make him see
i canand't call this life my own
cause iand'm not where i want to be
No, iand'm not where i want to be
oh noo, no no
no, iand'm not where i want to be
no, iand'm not where i want to be
oh no, iand'm not where i want to be
no, iand'm not where i want to be
no, iand'm not where i want to be
no no, iand'm not where i want to be
i tried walking around,
and'round these streets by myself
said andquot;pretty girl donand't look downandquot;
but i could look no place else
the smiles, the bed, the telephone
and still i canand't make him see
and i canand't call this life my own
cause iand'm not where i want to be
