David Bowie - Boys Keep Swinging lyrics

So stand close to me

Don't sail away, baby

Let them see your heart

Let 'em see just how beautiful you are

So you head on down

To the bottom near the river

Just to wash away

All the pain of today and yesterday

And you try so hard

To wash away the spots

But your tears

Don't seem to do enough

It's just too much

Well, darling grab a hand

We promise not to let you stand alone

So stand close to me

Don't sail away, baby

Let them see your heart

Let 'em see just how beautiful you are

You're like nobody else, you see

Nothing less than any girl in your magazine

Don't you know you're special?

You're really something special

Baby

So you look into

You look into the water

And there you are

Just the way you left yourself

All alone

But lift your head

And look across the water

'Cause there you'll see

All of us together singing

Darling grab a hand

We promise not to let you stand alone

So stand close to me

Don't sail away, baby

Let them see your heart

Let 'em see just how beautiful you are

You're like nobody else, you see

Nothing less than any girl in your magazine

Don't you know you're special?

You're really something special

Baby

Darling grab a hand

We won't let you go

Darling grab a hand

We promise not to let you stand alone

So stand close to me

Don't sail away, baby

Let them see your heart

Let 'em see just how beautiful you are

You're like nobody else, you see

Nothing less than any girl in your magazine

Don't you know you're special?

You're really something special

Baby, yeah
