Jim Caroll - Black Romance Lyrics

Everything you ever wanted Is passing with the driving rain I died like a salamander On my heart heavy like a chain I been waiting here at the uptown theater And it’s all becoming clear that Refrain: It’s too much head And not much heart But if you think about the end It might never get started It’s a black romance But it’s one more chance And if you fight out of spite You know that just ain’t right Everyone you ever cared for Is staying at the big hotel I’m in the lobby with my hobby And my rags and my bags And the desk man rings a bell I put a sign on my brain That said, "do not disturb" But the maids keep walking in Then they make these beds Inside my head I wish they’d throw everything out instead Repeat refrain Little girl go out dancing Little girl dance all night Little girl dance to a love that’s pure [. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ? ] I could hold your soul before a 1000 watt bulb It wouldn’t shine back at me Repeat refrain Jim Caroll Lyrics Black Romance Lyrics
