Dark weekends in the sun out on Chelsea Road

Descending the stairs ah Frankie my one

Check your makeup in the mirror c'mon babe let's go

We'll dance 'round this dirty town till the night is all done

Let all the finer things sleep alone tonight

Let all the minor kings lose their thrones tonight

Don't worry about us baby we'll be alright

Well everybody's dying this town's closing down

They're all sittin' down at the courthouse waiting for 'em to take the flag down

I see strange flashes in the sky up above

Gonna spend the night at the drive in with the one that I love

At dusk the stars all appear on the screen

Yeah just like they do each night in my dreams

But tonight's no dream Frankie I can feel myself too

Well now and forever baby my love is for you

Here we go here

Walk softly tonight little stranger

Yeah into these shadows we're passing through

Talk softly tonight little angel

You make all my dream worlds come true

Whoa

Well lately I've been standing out in the freezing rain

Readin' them want ads out on Chelsea Road

I'm winging down the street in search of new games

Hustling through these nightlights' diamond glow

Well Frankie I don't know what I'm gonna find

Maybe nothing at all maybe a world I can call mine

Shining like these streetlights down here on the strand

Bright as the rain in the palm of your hand

Walk softly tonight little stranger

Into these shadows where lovers go

Talk softly to me little angel

Whisper your secrets so soft and low

Walk softly tonight little stranger

Into these shadows where lovers go

Talk softly to me little angel

Whisper your secrets so soft and low

Walk softly tonight little angel

Into these shadows where lovers go

Talk softly to me little stranger

Whisper your secrets so soft and low

Talk softly to me

Talk softly to me

Talk softly to me

Talk softly to me
