Week upon week of seamless night i was going to get something off that guy got
robbed and hit in the knees because i could not see for all the trees i lost my
shoes, with naked feet i ran and i ran through rainy streets
But when i caught up one guy had become three and i could not see for all the
trees
Piece by piece the image cleared — no one ever made a friend around here i
tried to make them see but they would not see for all the green
One night i’ll fight you but not tonight
This lonely night is already lost
Sad men with sadder ends, lonely nights and city lights
I thought that i could see but i could not see for all the trees
One night i’ll fight you but not tonight
This lonely night is already lost
