The night was black with thunder
The streets were wet with rain
Another day goes under

A little bourbon will take the strain
And I'm waiting for my take-home French fries
She smiled and said 'take me away'

We always laughed but I think she means it
But I'm dreaming my life away
Loving you

Loving you the way that I do

The weekend cars are leaving

In a spray of wind and sound
The bar-talk, make believing
And the drinks go easy down

It's back to the all-night take-away
She says 'Here comes the man of my dreams'
We always laugh but I think she means it

And I'm spending my time
Just loving you
Loving you the way that I do
