Afternoon fading to a tone of blue,
Soon I’ll be running out of things to do
The heat of July clinging to my skin,
Yeah, I’ll let the night begin
Closing the door I can feel the streets,
The music of chance and the broken beats
Roaming the town I smell the humid air,
Yeah, you're out there somewhere, always
So real, so right, so good by night,
Come play for me
So real, so right, so out of sight,
Yeah, just never meant to be
Walking down alleys with forgotten names,
Whispering curses and dispensing blames
Remembering phrases of forgotten vows,
Yeah, I'm gonna stop it somehow, always
So real, so right, so good by night,
Come play for me
So real, so right, so out of sight,
Yeah, just never meant to be
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
I see a lot of places, people passing by and
Faces glowing in the dark
I cry just a little, fall just a little,
Rambling down the street again
On my way back home
So real, so right
So real, so right, so good by night,
Come play for me
So real, so right, so out of sight,
Yeah, just never meant to be
Come play for me
So real, so right, so out of sight,
Yeah, just never meant to be
