Adelaide

Every night out on the fire escape

I hear the wind call your name

Once or twice down that lonely lane

I saw you walking away

Adelaide, Adelaide

Worst mistake I ever made

Heart of gold on a chain

For Adelaide, Adelaide

Back and forth the wipers beating time I make

My way through the driving rain

Every road brings me back this way

Back to the same damn place

Adelaide, Adelaide

Worst mistake I ever made

Every night I kneel and pray

For Adelaide, Adelaide

I can't sleep and I can't seem to concentrate

And now I'm lost in my own brain

Adelaide, Adelaide

Worst mistake I ever made

Every night I kneel and pray

For Adelaide, Adelaide
