lyrics

on a night like any other night
feeding joy and despair
the bedtime prayers of little children
added to the air
and somewhere out there
billy t. lit up a cigarette
deep down he knew
this should really be the last one
but he didn’t want to face it

it is so hard
to give up
something you love

sleeping dogs are starting to stir
cat’s eyes all aglow now
the bedtime prayers
of the sick and the hungry
going somewhere nobody knows now
and billy t. had a joke
on the tip of his tongue
and a saxaphone solo in his head
and smoke filling up his lungs
and a very tired heart in his chest

it is so hard
to give up
something you love

and I wish that I’d never met you
that I’d never let you see me cry
you tell me you can live without me
well I’d like to see you make me try
