Belle Of The Boulevard

Down in a local bar
 Out on the boulevard
 The sound of an old guitar is saving you from sinking
 It's a long way down
 It's a long way
 Back like you never broke
 You tell a dirty joke
 He touches your leg and thinks he's getting close
 For now you let him
 Just this once
 Just for now
 And just like that
 It's over
 Don't turn away
 Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
 Don't be afraid
 But keep it all inside, all inside
 When you fall apart
 Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
 Life is always hard
 For the belle of the boulevard
 In all your silver rings
 In all your silken things
 That song you softly sing is keeping you from breaking
 It's a long way down
 It's a long way
 Back here you never lost
 You shake the shivers off
 You take a drink to get your courage up
 Can you believe it?
 Just this once
 Just for now
 And just like that
 It's over
 Don't turn away
 Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
 Don't be afraid
 But keep it all inside, all inside
 When you fall apart
 Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
 Life is always hard

 Please hold on, it's alright
 Please hold on, it's alright
 Please hold on
 Down in a local bar
 Out on the boulevard
 The sound of an old guitar is saving you
 Don't turn away
 Dry your eyes, dry you eyes
 Don't be afraid
 But keep it all inside, all inside
 When you fall apart
 Dry your eyes, dry your eyes
 Life is always hard
 Let me dry your eyes, dry you eyes
 Don't turn away
 Darling, dry your eyes, dry your eyes
 Don't be afraid
 But keep it all inside, all inside
 When you fall apart
 Gonna dry your eyes, dry your eyes
 Life is always hard
