Outside another yellow moon   Has punched a hole in the nighttime   I climb through the window and down to the street   I'm shining like a new dime      The downtown trains are full   With all those Brooklyn girls   They try so hard to break out of their little world   You wave your hand and they scatter like crows   They have nothing that will ever capture your heart   They're just thorns without the rose   Oh, be careful of them in the dark      And if I was the one   You chose to be your only one   Oh baby now, can't you hear me now      Will I see you tonight on a downtown train   Where every night is just the same;You leave me lonely now      (Now) I know your window and I know it's late   I know your stairs and your doorway   I walk down your street and past your gate   I stand by the light at the fourway      You watch them as they fall   Ooh, and they all have heart attacks   They stay at the carnival, but they'll never win you back      Will I see you tonight on a downtown train   Where every night, every night is just the same; you leave me lonely      Will I see you tonight on a downtown train   Where every night, every night is just the same, all upon a downtown   Will I see you tonight on a downtown train   Where every night, every night is just the same, you leave me lonely      Will I see you tonight on a downtown train   Where all my dreams just fall like the rain, all upon a downtown train
