You have heard many times
about the wrong side of life,
of drinking and gambling
and a new love every night,
of dancing,
romancing in all those pretty lights,
but it's just to ease the loneliness on my side of the night.
Now there's a pretty girl,
see her whirl,
her eyes twinkling bright,
she looks so very happy in her new dress of white,
though she looks so fine,
I know it's wine that makes her feel so light,
oh it's just to ease the loneliness on my side of the night.
Oh there's money made on hearts that
paid from a love that was untrue,
but do they enjoy their fortune from people feeling blue?
Oh I guess you know we need a place to go,
whether we are wrong or right,
oh there's every
kind but we don't mind on my side of the night.
Yes there's every kind but we don't mind on my side of the night.
