Watch The Moon Come Down

Lyrics

In this dirty town there's nothing going for me
 No show's going down that I would want to see
 Nothing but the midnight train
 In this shady street on a top floor flat
 Women take their sheets down to the laundromat
 And as the night falls on this town
 I'm going to watch the moon come down
 Watch the moon come down
 I'm gonna watch the moon come down
 Watch it come down
 As the workmen walk home, reflected in the car chrome
 Splashing through the gutters and the sand
 The birds move in the rafters hearing echoes of the laughter
 From children in a playground close at hand
 And hands inside my pockets, staring at the light sockets
 Everyone's been blown out everyone's been thrown out
 I said, "Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby"
 I'm going to watch the moon come down
 Watch the moon come down
 I'm gonna watch the moon come down
 Watch it come down
 If I stay out all night, test the midnight train's headlights
 Follow the tracks beyond sight to the bend
 Now who've I got to let down
 Tell me somebody with their head down
 Bargin' into solid ground in the end
 In the end, yeah in the end
 Waitin' for the end, arrive to the end, hey, hey
 I said, "Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby"
 Watch the moon come down
 Watch the moon come down
 Watch the moon come down
 Yes, I'm going to watch the moon come down
 Yeah, I'm going to watch the moon come down
 Like a midnight train uh huh
 Uh, uh, I'm going to watch the moon come down
 Watch it come down
 Yes, I'm going to watch the moon come down
 Like a midnight train
