orchestral manoeuvres in the dark - big town lyrics
i discovered a big town
on the crest of a wave
throwing money at strangers
taking candy from babes
shaking hands with the big top (?)
as the rain came down
i thought it would not stop
sending letters to paris
from the empire state
taking pictures from the top.
[chorus]:
there’s a lot of things
for you to do…
there’s a lot of dreams
that won’t come true.
i grew up in a big town
the lessons were not hard to learn.
if you want them to love you,
then you must not love them, in return.
spent the night at a party
where i drank so much
i fell under your spell…
eight o’clock in the morning
and the daylight makes me
look and feel like h-ll.
when you live in a big town
there are sights and sounds
that make you
want to cry…
