Well, it's a big, big city
and it's always the same
Can never be too pretty,
won't you tell me your name?
Is it out of line if I was
to be bold and say,
Would you be mine?
Though I may be a beggar
and I may be a queen
I may be on a down
or I'm still ready to dream
But it's three o 'clock,
the time is just the time it
takes for you to talk
So if you're lonely,
why do you say you're not lonely?
You're a silly boy, I know,
I heard it's so
It's just like you to come
and go and know me
No, you don't even know me
You're so sweet to try
Oh my, you caught my eye
A guy like you's just irresistible
Well, it's a big, big city
and the lights are all out
But it's as much as I can do,
you know, to figure you out
And I must confess,
my heart's all broken pieces
And my head's a mess
And it's four in the morning
and I'm walking along
Beside the ghost of every drinker
here who's ever done wrong
And it's you, well, who's got me
going crazy
for the things you do
So if you're crazy, I don't care,
you amaze me
But you're a stupid guy,
oh me, oh my
You talk, I die, you smile, I laugh, I cry
And only a guy like you can be lonely
And it's a cryin' shame
if you would think the same
A girl like me's just irresistible
So if you're lonely,
why do you say you're not lonely?
Oh, you're a silly boy, I know,
I heard it's always just like you
To come and go and know me
No, you don't even know me
But you're so sweet to try
Oh my, you caught my eye
A guy like you's just irresistible
