Fiddler On The Roof - sunrise, sunset lyrics

I’m just sitting

Alone in my room

I’m just pretending

I’m singing to you

I’m just a tourist

In the town of my youth

Taking little snapshots

To stick in a book

I don’t know you

You don’t know me.

I’m full of summer and sunshine today

‘Cause for some reason got everything I need

And all that I’m asking is a smile on your face

But you seem like a stranger when I hear you say

I don’t know you

You don’t know me

I believe in the great outdoors

Makes the heart beat, opens up the pores

I don’t know why you hang out in that same club all the time

And smoky bars

Where old men use those same pick-up lines

Ashtrays and beer cans decorate your life

You look so tired and depressed

It makes your mother cry

All eyes on you (x4)

Fishnet stockings

Long black boots

They don’t see you crying

They just see your roots

Show me money

Take away my blues

We’re all just living

The life we choose

And I don’t know you

You don’t know me

She believe in the great outdoors

Makes the heart beat, opens up the pores

I don’t know why you hang out in that same club all the time

And smoky bars

Where old men use those same pick-up lines

Ashtrays and beer cans decorate your life

You look so tired and depressed

It makes your mother cry

All eyes on you (x4)

Children sniffing glue

It makes you sad

But what can you do?

AZT the end approaches

Spray cans kill the cockroaches

I don’t want to marry your son

I’m sure I’m not the only one

No place for protest music

CNN is my best friend

It’s because of the dress

My kitchen’s in a mess

It’s the wine I’m drinking

The thoughts I’m thinking

I’m not sleeping

No place for protest music

All eyes on you (x4)
