Something's happenin'
Cause everything's different,
But everything is fine, yeah
Cause this is the good stuff
And yesterday is only what you leave behind
It's only in your mind
Chorus:
You gotta talk to the one who made you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All that light in your eyes
All that light in your eyes
There's no use pretendin'
You (or it) never existed
Til you saw the light, yeah
Cause you're just beginning
You haven't missed it
It's only in you,
And you know what to do
Chorus:
You gotta talk to the one who made you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All that light in your eyes
All that light in your eyes
If the world wasn't the way she is now
You'd be mysterious
She's got more use
And give it to me
When nobody's happy
That's not the world outside
Where everybody hides
Chorus:
You gotta talk to the one who made you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All that light in your eyes
All that light in your eyes
You gotta talk to the one who made you
Talk to the one who understands
Talk to the one who gave you
All that light in your eyes
All that light in your eyes
Yeah, thank you, thank you
Yeah, everything will stop
Yeah, thank you, thank you
For the light in your eyes
Yeah, thank you, thank you
Yeah, everything will stop
Yeah, thank you, thank you,
For the light in your eyes
For the light in your eyes
God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?
Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone tonight
You can't change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man?
Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
It's try and love me if you can
Are you man enough to be my man?
When I've shown you that I just don't care
When I'm throwing punches in the air
When I'm broken down and cannot stand
Will you be strong enough to be my man?
Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
Life springs eternal
On a gaudy neon street
Not that I care at all
I spent the best part of my losing streak
In an Army Jeep
For what I can't recall
Oh I'm banging on my TV set
And I check the odds
And I place my bet
I pour a drink
And I pull the blind
And I wonder what I'll find
[Chorus]
I'm Leaving Las Vegas
Lights so bright
Palm sweat, blackjack
On a Saturday night
Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving for good, for good
I'm leaving for good
I'm leaving for good
Used to be I could drive up to
Barstow for the night
Find some crossroad trucker
To demonstrate his might
But these days it seems
Nowhere is far enough away
So I'm leaving Las Vegas today
[Chorus]
I'm standing in the middle of the desert
Waiting for my ship to come in
But now no joker, no jack, no king
Can take this loser hand
And make it win
[Chorus]
I quit my job as a dancer
At the Lido Des Girls
Dealing blackjack until one or two
Such a muddy line between
The things you want
And the things you have to do
[Chorus]
I'm leaving Las Vegas
And I won't be back
No I won't be back
Not this time
