Whistle For The Choir

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well, it's a big, big city and it's always the same

Can never be too pretty, tell me your name

Is it out of line if I were simply bold to say: Would you be mine?

Because I maybe a beggar and you maybe the queen

I know I maybe on a downer, I'm still ready to dream

Now it's 3 o'clock, the time is just the time it takes for you to talk

So if you're lonely, why'd you say you're not lonely?

Oh, you're a silly girl, I know, I heard it so

It's just like you to come and go

And know me, no, you don't even know me

You're so sweet to try, oh, my, you caught my eye

A girl like you's just irresistible

Well, it's a big, big city and the lights are all out

But it's much as I can do, you know, to figure you out

And I must confess, my hearts in broken pieces and my heads a mess

And it's 4 in the morning, and I'm walking along

Beside the ghost of every drinker here who has ever done wrong

And it's you, woo hoo, that's got me going crazy for the things you do

So if you're crazy I don't care, you amaze me

But you're a stupid girl, oh, me, oh, my

You talk, I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry

And only a girl like you could be lonely

And it's a crying shame if you would think the same

A boy like me's just irresistible

So if you're lonely, why'd you say you're not lonely?

Oh, you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so

It's just like you to come and go

And know me, no, you don't even know me

You're so sweet to try, oh, my, you caught my eye

A girl like you's just irresistible
