Cântăre Fifth avenue breakdown

Fifth Avenue Breakdown



did you ever get the feeling

that you're trying to hard

when you're all dressed up

and you're out on the boulevard

looking for another likely face

and going through the same old number

looking in the same old place



well it's a neon night

and all the cars are moving slow

and they circle once more

'cause there's no place else to go

and it all looks like

some crazy masquerade

and you're feeling like a thirsty pilgrim

searching for a piece of shade



now sometimes don't you wish you had

wings

and you culd just fly away

singing bye bye baby

free from all the empty dreams

that let you down

they let you down



still you're all wound up

'cause you're stranded on your own

ain't it funny how a crowded street

makes you feel alone

and your heart keeps saying

baby something's got to give

and it looks like everyone's in limbo

waiting for the chance to live

waiting for the chance to live

waiting for the cahnce to live
