Stroll to the café my God how time flies And I close up my brain another friend dies And me I'm just the same Soaking up Broadway Nightlife in Detroit And I'd buy these New York ladies If these light weren't so bright And me I wasn't there Stagger down main street A knife in my side And I fall to the gutter In tears but with pride And me I'm feeling okay Moving out of Central this villain knows me well Says he'll spill the whole story He might be lying, I can't tell And me I'm not that kind I've been searching for my shadow in vain How can I be still while my lifeline remains I've been searching for my shadow in vain How can I be still while my lifeline remains with him Try to steal a needle Bring peace to my head And I'm stumbling down the alleys I find killers instead And me I'm the cause of it all Street corner women are taking their toll Now they look at me, I'm dying And I'm growing old And me I'm loving it all I've been searching for my shadow in vain How can I be still while my lifeline remains I've been searching for my shadow in vain How can I be still while my lifeline remains with him
