Alannah Myles - LOVE IN THE BIG TOWN lyrics

Perfect strangers in this desert town

Just out of flame and looking for favours

Hungry players when the deals go down

You get a hollow heart from shallow breathing

And a see-through smile like the ones on T.V.

This is the land of thrills and money where you

Hit the edge and you drift out to sea

It seems so real, looks so good

But you'd give it all up and you'd start again if you thought you could

And it sounds so sweet, feels so right

But it leaves you cold in the middle of the night

Step right up, lay your money down

If you're looking to buy love in the big town

Lift you up, tear you down

Leave you begging for more love in the big town

Down in the street with the waiters and mystics

When you got faith in nothing, you just fantasize

You look for a flame but you'd fall for a flicker

In those angel faces and those cowboy eyes

They seem so real and they look so good

And with a bit of persuasion you really believe you know you could

Tastes so sweet, feels so right

But it leaves you cold in the heart of the night

Chorus:

Step right up, (lay your) money down

If you're looking to find love in the big town

Lift you up, tear you down

They'll leave you begging for more love in the big town

Oh you learn to use all your desperation

Till it works its way into your soul

Then you find out that you slowly lose control

chorus repeats 2x...
