Talk of the Town

Such a drag to want something sometimes

One thing leads to another, I know

Was a time I wanted you for mine

Nobody knew

You arrived like a day

And passed like a cloud

I made a wish, I said it out loud

Loud in a crowd

Everybody heard

'Twas the talk of the town

It's not my place to know what you feel

I'd like to know, but why should I?

Who were you then?

Who are you now?

Common laborer by night

By day, highbrow

Back in my room, I wonder, then I-

Sit on the bed, look at the sky

Up in the sky

Clouds rearrange

Like the talk of the town

Maybe tomorrow, maybe someday

Maybe tomorrow, maybe someday

You've changed (You've changed)

Your place in this world

You've changed (You've changed)

Your place in this world

Oh, but it's hard to live by the rules

I never could and still never do

The rules and such, never bothered you

You call the shots and they follow

I watch you still from a distance then go

Back to my room, you never know

I want you, I want you, but now

Who's the talk of the town?
