Don't say a word
Don't tell me where you think I'm going wrong
Not a word
I heard it all before you came along
It's the same old song

Don't say a word
Don't tell me what I need, I've got it all
Not a word
You might as well bang your head off the wall
And it makes no sense at all
No it makes no sense at all

It's the same old song
Going on and on and on
It's the same old song
Going on and on and on

Don't say a word
Can't you see that I've made up my mind?
Not a word
Can't you see I've got it all you must be blind
Or out of your mind
Out of your tiny little mind

Don't say a word
Don't tell me where you think I'm going wrong
Not a word
I heard it all before you came along
It's the same old song
Going on and on and on

It's the same old song
Going on and on and on
It's the same old song
Going on and on and on
It's the same old song
Going on and on and on

How could she tell me that our love was over?
How could she bring these words to my door?
How could she leave me, hurt me, deceive me?
How was I the last one to know?

Answer me, oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of?
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Answer me, my love!
You were mine, yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me where I've gone astray?
Answer me, my love!

How could she tell me that she'd found another?
How could she bring those words to my door?
How could she leave me, hurt me, deceive me?
How was I the last one to know?

Answer me, oh my love
Just what sin have I been guilty of?
Tell me how I came to lose your love
Answer me, my love!
You were mine, yesterday
I believed that love was here to stay
Won't you tell me where I've gone astray?
Answer me, my love!

Did your good times come and go?
Or is it best that I don't know?
On that early morning train
It's like you've never been away

I'd take the sun out of the sky for you
And keep it locked away
Hold back the morning tide for you
On the early morning train

Still thinking of that place
I can see it in your face
On the early morning train
It's like you've never been away

I'd take the sun out of the sky for you
And keep it locked away
Hold back the morning tide for you
On the early morning train

There were days when I knew my life was complete
As I walked by your side, the world at my feet
And the time when we danced under flickering light
From the stars looking down on that Westerhope night

But do you suppose
They ever came close
With the sun on my back
And my Callerton rose

They said all things must pass and we knew from the start
What held us so close could tear us apart
On the night that you left I thought I would die
Under stars looking out on that Westerhope sky

But do you suppose
They ever came close
With the sun on my back
And my Callerton rose

It's dirty and torn
That coat should never be worn again
She heard someone say
Wonder what she looked like in her day

Her shoes are worn drown
If it rains, I know she will drown again
At three in the night
She just turns and waits for morning light

But this can't be right
She's sleeping in doorways tonight
How deep is the scar
That made her fall this far?

Stares into the night
Hears a noise sees a blue flashing light again
Her back's to the wall
As she remembers when she had it all

But this can't be right
She's down on her luck tonight
How deep is the scar
That made her fall this far?

It's dirty and torn
That coat should never be worn again
She heard someone say
Wonder what she looked like in her day

But this can't be right
She's down on her luck tonight
How deep is the scar
That made her fall this far?

Wonder what she looked like in her day

Feel the beat of the city tonight
In the streets of Newcastle tonight
Feel the heat in the city tonight
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There'll be tears in the city tonight
See the boys on the make and the girls dressed to kill
Chasing dreams in the city tonight
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

It's a beautiful city I know
Down the steps to the Quayside and I can still see
Seven bridges to carry me home
To the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

Feel the beat of the city tonight
See them all dressed in black down in Old Eldon Square
All my pictures will be black and white
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

There were times when they said
This town had gone to my head
Leazes Park to the Tyne
In the streets of Newcastle tonight

I just don't know where the days have gone
Without a word, tomorrow came along
And yesterday, it sailed into the blue
I've been spending to much time away from you

The telephone can't thrill me with your touch
And the words you write, don't hold me close enough
And photographs don't say it like you do
I've been spending to much time away from you

I wanna take you to the beach tonight
Keep you within my reach all night

And yesterday, it sailed into the blue
I've been spending to much time away from you

The telephone can't thrill me with your touch
And the words you write, don't hold me close enough
And photographs don't say it like you do
I've been spending to much time away from you

I've been spending to much time away from you

Down at the Mayfair on a Friday night
With your hair too long, jeans too tight
What a mess, stood there in your grandad vest
All the young dudes heading underground
Gonna take their place with the lost and found
Beneath the street, it's where we all would meet

And Moondancer's acting crazy
He's just a little bit out of his head
I Never understood a word he said
Not a word

Percy Street to the promised land
Sensational Alex Harvey Band
They're in town, here comes the clown
City Tavern, Old George and the Man in the Moon
Afghan coats in the middle of June
Friday couldn't come too soon!

And Moondancer thinks he's Jesus
He's just a little bit out of control
Look at him go! Now I've seen it all
Seen it all

Down at the Mayfair on a Friday night
Look at those girls jeans skin tight
Oh how they danced! We never stood a chance
Wishbone Ash and the Spiders from Mars
The whole place is rocking to a thousand guitars
What a sight on a Friday night

It's two o'clock and I'm acting crazy
Just a little bit out of my head
I've spend my taxi fare, looks like I'm walking instead
Walking to you

All the young dudes
Carry the news
I see all the young dudes
Carry the news
