歌曲歌詞
Snow in a soulless city covers up
The cracks in the road
As a wastrel buys her cigarettes
And wipes her pretty nose
Like a part-time Elvis imitator
These streets I knew so well
Have been pasted beyond recognition
With a temporary smell
Now the midnight train eases
Out leaving everyone marooned
And without her it might
As well be the surface of the moon
From the well-swept streets of
Jackson Heights to the dockside drudgery
Everything's now a replica of
What it used to be
But since they tarted up the trenches
And painted the bridges blue
It seems less like a home to me than
Just a place they bury you
Now we're lit up like a cathedral in
Our frozen concrete ruin
And without her it might
As well be the surface of the moon
So I need her and I love her that is true
But I'm stuck here like some
Shipwreck still holding on to you
When they beat out the tramps
And patch up the slums
Everything will be fine
There'll be a new facade for us to hide behind
So on the ancient trails of our coupling
In the places we used to meet
I am amazed by the lack of memories
That I thought would flood through me
And the riverside
Where we first kissed has now been reduced
To a phoney old world market
Where only shoppers get seduced
Now your arms embrace me strangely
In your unfamiliar room
And for all I care it might
As well be the surface of the moon
Yeah for all I care it might
As well be the surface of the moon
