Cold wind blowing, in the dead of the night
Snow was falling, all of the lamps were bright
I was alone, just standing there
The same old tatters that I always wear
And so-o-o-o, The sto-o-o-o, the story
goes, oh, so the story goes
oh, and nobody ever knows (x2)
Always lonesome, on the Friday nights
Watching smoke rings till they're out of sight
Empty highways pass in front of me
Do you remember the time we were next to the sea?
And so-o-o-o, The sto-o-o-o, the story
goes, oh, so the story goes
oh, and nobody ever knows (x2)
tu-tu-tu-tududududu tu-tu-tu-tududududu
I'm falling (falling) I'm falling into you (x3)
So, oh , so the story goes
Oh, and nobody ever knows.
