Verse 1

 I wander the lonely streets...

 Behind where the old Thames does flow.

 And in every face I meet...

 Reminds me of what I have run for.

Bridge

 In every man, in every hand,

 In every kiss you understand,

That living is for other men,

 I hope you too understand...

Verse 2

 I've got to tell you my tale...

 Of how I loved and how I failed...

 I hope you understand?

 These feelings should not be in the man.

Bridge

 In every child, in every eye,

 In every sky above my head...

I hope that I know,

 So come with me in bed.

Chorus

 Because its you and me we're history

 There ain't nothing left to say

 When I...will get you alone...

Verse 3

 Maybe we could find a room?

 Where we could see what we should do...

 Maybe you know its true?

 Well, living with me is like keeping a fool.

Bridge

 In every man, in every hand,

 In every kiss you understand,

That living is for other men,

 I hope you know that I am me...

Chorus

Reprise)

 So come on, I'm thinking about history,

 And I'm living for history,

 And I think you know I'm bound for you,

Cause I am...

Bridge

Reprise)

 And one and one is two, but three is company

 When you're thinking about the things you do,

 And you're thinking about the things you do...

Verse 4

 I wanna tell you my tale...

 How I fell in love and jumped out on my bail...

 Do you understand?

 There's more in a smile that in a hand.

Bridge

 In every sky, in every kiss

 There's one thing that you've might have missed

 Oh, why am I going to a place that now belongs to you?

Chorus

 But you and me, and so am I

 Lets make it up

 Lets even try to live today, so why not smile?

 Don't dream away your life...

Middle 8

  Cause it is mine...

  It is mine...

 Is that a crime?

 Is that a crime?

 This life is mine, but the bed ain't made,

 Its filled full of hope, I've got a skinfull of dope...

 Oh, the bed ain't made,

 But its filled full of hope, I've got a skinfull of dope...
