A hard rain’s falling
Down at the bus stop
Soaked to the bones
But hell, it’s a closed shop
Now on the wrong side of town

Big warning sign
But I’m a believer
Lurking in darkness like
You’re a deceiver
Fine: no more nursery rhymes

What a mess
Please tell me
What is wrong with you?
What are you crying about?
Well I don’t know what to do
Stars come out to play
But they’re so far away
Away from here
Be sincere
Coz I am

Romeo
Tears in the afterglow
The curtain’s down
Get out of town
Don’t say you can’t let go

Romeo
Some things you’ll never know
And when it ends
Let’s just be friends
How little does she know

Oh what a joke

Right down the line
And straight into dead loss
Me the numbskull
Lost in a love’s dross
Damn, what a peabrain I am

You said that I should wait
Until your mind’s made up
Can I please get back
The years that I’ve been trapped
No, I should have told you to go

I see you lying there
In this cold neon light
Your eyes are closed
Your soul is somewhere out of sight
Nothing in this room means anything to me
Anymore
Shut the door
Coz I am

Romeo
Left out there in the snow
When stories end
Let’s just pretend
That we’ll reap what we sow

Romeo
Love can be friend of foe
Love can be cruel
I was the fool
And stayed when lights were low

Oh what a hoax

I’ve waited long enough
And made myself a fool
My heart was broken though I tried to play it cool
Good luck in finding out
who you really are
Well, I’m done
Hit and run
Enough of

Romeo
Well that was years ago
My shabby cloak
Went up in smoke
My laurels even so

Romeo
No plan if love should go
Completely broke
A cash-strapped bloke
That once was Moonshadow

Romeo
Well, that’s the way things go
These restless years
So many in tears
But that was long ago

Romeo
One word before I go
Heart on the mend
My awkward friend
Sure you’ll reap what you sow

Oh Romeo
