Monotov’s Private Opera

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Every moment of your life is a chance to get it right Every moment you've been livin' in, you could turn it all on like a light And the weight of the years has got me burstin' into tears Standin' here with nothin', I stand alone inside my fears [Pre-Chorus 1] And like an actor reveals a deeper state When I tell you now for me it's not too late [Chorus] To tell you, baby, it's you and only you and no one else And I'll mean it, even when I'm talkin' to myself I said maybe, it's you and only you and no one else [Verse 2] And how I miss Moscow (Moscow), those people really know How to have a good time in a mixed-up state of mind [Pre-Chorus 2] And Monotov's Private Opera is closed So I guess I'll go home now 'cause there's no where else to go [Chorus] And tell you, baby, it's you and only you and no one else And I mean it, and even when I'm talking to myself I said baby, it's you and only you and no one else [Bridge] You and no one else, but I'm lost in a poem And now I'm walkin' by myself in the dark alone But these actors and dramatists won't send me home [Verse 3] Maybe I'm like my father, strung out on something or another Held to a standard we were always sinkin' under And maybe I'm like my mother, she shattered 'cause no one loved her And maybe I, maybe I am like no other [Pre-Chorus 3] And some moments are more real than the books I've read (the books I've read) And the good woman, well maybe she meant what she said And I'll tell you now some things go straight to my head [Chorus] And I'll tell you, baby, it's you and only you and no one else And I'll mean it, even when I'm talkin' to myself I said baby, it's you and only you and no one else Yes, I mean it, even when I'm talkin' to myself [Post-Chorus] I'm talkin' to myself I'm talkin' to myself, mmm I'm talkin' to myself Um baby [Outro] Everything changed in a day And I know another one on the way And I'll tell you, baby Everything changed in a day And I know and I know Another one another one on the way And I will tell you Everything changed in a day Let me know and I know Another one on the way on the way I know
