《No Woman Around(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] No Woman Around - The Philosopher Kings

[00:00:12] On the main streets and the avenues

[00:00:15] In the condos white as knuckles bruised

[00:00:18] With the carmine of the busy liquor bars

[00:00:23] There's a dark and mystic beauty

[00:00:26] To these inner-city girls

[00:00:28] That slide by in the velvet of their cars

[00:00:34] Through the dance halls and the shopping malls

[00:00:36] And the subways filled with Dresden dolls

[00:00:39] To the school of fallen angels on the ground

[00:00:44] The whole city's just an expensive whore

[00:00:47] A forest nymph with a pompadour

[00:00:50] But there ain't no woman around

[00:00:54] No there ain't no woman around

[00:00:59] No there ain't no woman around

[00:01:05] Well I'm surrounded by these girls

[00:01:09] But there just ain't no woman around

[00:01:16] And the girl that fills my bed

[00:01:18] Will hear the words I should've said

[00:01:21] To the only true love I ever found

[00:01:25] I'll pretend that make-up in her purse

[00:01:28] Is a day-dream not a curse

[00:01:31] That comes just to kick me down

[00:01:35] I can still taste the youth of her kiss

[00:01:38] Maybe it's the childhood that I missed

[00:01:42] The first time around there's a weird shape to her charms

[00:01:49] There's a strange meat on her arms

[00:01:51] But there ain't no woman around

[00:01:56] No there ain't no woman around

[00:02:01] No there ain't no woman around

[00:02:07] Well I'm surrounded by these girls

[00:02:10] But there just ain't no woman around

[00:02:17] Sometimes I feel I'm running

[00:02:20] Like a fever through the night

[00:02:22] And I've run myself straight into the ground

[00:02:27] I miss your smile your name

[00:02:30] And your breath on my skin

[00:02:32] And I'm lost and alone in this crowd

[00:02:38] From the locks and curls and strings of pearls

[00:02:41] To the drunk and eager jelly girls

[00:02:44] It's an all-day floor show Matinee in town

[00:02:49] And it suddenly occurs that I'm surrounded by these girls

[00:02:53] But there ain't no woman around

[00:02:58] No there ain't no woman around

[00:03:03] No there ain't no woman around

[00:03:08] Well I'm surrounded by these girls

[00:03:12] But there just ain't no woman around
