BON JOVI
Midnight in Chelsea
Kids round here look just like sticks
Trade their licks with a beat up six
I just smile and catch the groove
Got the girls all dressed in black
Serious as heart attacks
Takes a little bit of gettin' used to
The old man with the whiskey stains
Lost the night, forgot his name
His poor wife will sleep alone again
And it ain't hard to understand
Why she's holding on to her own hand
It's midnight in Chelsea (Shalalala shalala)
Midnight in Chelsea (Shalalala shalala)
No-one's asking me for favours
No-one's looking for a saviour
They're too busy saving me
I see the lonesome rainy drive
Seems the chauffeur took a dive
Sold his secrets to the "Sun"
Later in a magazine, I finally figured what it means
To be a saint, not a queen
Two lustful lovers catch a spark
Chase these shadows in the dark
Someone's getting off tonight
A big red bus that's packed so tight
Disappears in a trail of light
Somewhere someone's dreaming
Baby, it's alright
It's midnight in Chelsea (Shalalala shalala)
Midnight in Chelsea (Shalalala shalala)
No-one's pinnin' dreams on me
No-one's asking me to bleed
I'm the man I wanna be
And just the girls sing
Shalalala...
It's morning when I go to sleep
In the distant dawn a church bell rings
Another day is coming on
Baby's born, an old man dies
Somewhere young lovers kiss good-bye
"I leave, my soul" and just move on
Wish that I was there to sing this song
(Shalalala...)
