On the corner of my life
the road leads in two directions
One that's proved with satisfactions
the other one's leading right to you
And for the first time I stood still
Cause I'd never been so lonely
Should I try to love you only
or should I have to be alone
And (yes) I tried to run away my love
but you're callin' each day my love
and where the streets seem slippy and bare
look at me I'll be fallin' down
don't know what I can do
Simply to be with you
On the corner of my life
children press their little noses
against a window-pane with roses
and a bar where music played
Oh I must have been a child
Cause it took so long I'd chosen
I'm glad the barman said: "I'm closin'"
So I walked right up to you
And (yes) I tried to run away my love
but you're callin' each day my love
and where the streets seem slippy and bare
