Tom Waits Downtown train (1985)

Outside another yellow moon Has punched a hole in the nighttime, yes I climb through the window and down to the street I m shining like a new dime The downtown trains are full with all of those brooklyn girls They try so hard to break out of their little worlds Well you wave your hand and they scatter like crows They have nothing that will ever capture your heart They re just thorns without the rose Be careful of them in the dark Oh, if i was the one you chose to be your only one Oh baby can t you hear me
