Chinatown Lyrics
This heart of mine keeps decent time
Though my ears may be weak
And my eyes may be all but blind
I still have sense enough to hear
And I'm not much without you near
I've paid my dues
Done one or two
But still it keeps a boiling down to you
So choose to be my victory, or vice
Oh either way I still want you here tonight
Heavens knows it's hard to find another
Oh hell knows it's got a home for folks like me
There will come a day
When the earth will cease to spin
You'll hold me close and say
My god where have you been?
I've been around, old Chinatown
Happily lost but oh so easily found
They're counting the stars above the hill
'Neath some old moon, humming my tune
I'll see you soon
Though my ears may be weak
And my eyes may be all but blind
I still have sense enough to hear
And I'm not much without you near
Done one or two
But still it keeps a boiling down to you
So choose to be my victory, or vice
Oh either way I still want you here tonight
Oh hell knows it's got a home for folks like me
There will come a day
When the earth will cease to spin
You'll hold me close and say
My god where have you been?
Happily lost but oh so easily found
They're counting the stars above the hill
'Neath some old moon, humming my tune
I'll see you soon
