Chinatown

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I never thought it would come to this On your promise across your wrist You had my address when I left for Budapest But it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that string I never thought it would come to this On your promise So I walk in the park Ask for a light and stranger's spark Not once knowing where I was going And this bourbon bottle here, like a greenhouse Where friendships are stooped in the sewer bleed out [Chorus] How was it that you had lost what you had found? And all I wanted was to lose it here in your Chinatown [Verse 2] There's not a sound in the air Not a word spoken There's not a sound in the bed Since it's been broken I never thought it would come to this With matches in our pockets I pull out the match You should have never crossed my path And what was the sink in our [?] And trying to love you is like [?] Which is not all put together to quite make it [Chorus] How was it that you had lost what you had found? And all I wanted was to lose it in your Chinatown [Bridge] The lady of the light saw [?] I caught your breath and you caught me blind This was some kind of neon-leather pride Now, you've got me on a leash with an option to buy [Chorus] How was it that you had lost what you had found? And all I wanted was to lose it in your Chinatown [Outro] And if, good heavens, sleep with the city Then, tell me, how do you have me?
