Now picture this, my point of view
In an ideal world I see the likes of you
Such as it is, babes in the woodAt the best of times I feel misunderstood
No work, no play
A million miles awayTender is the night
I'm frantic today
No play
A million miles awayTender is the night
I'm frantic todayIt makes no sense, you'd think of meI'm out of place in your society
I want to be, where strangers meet
I want to hold you at the dark end of the streetNo work, no play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I'm frantic todayNo play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I'm frantic todayIs this the end, then let me know
Are you wanting me to stay, or should I go?Your fancy words, all fast and loose
I'm too tongue-tied for the company you choose
No work and no playA million miles away
Tender is the night
I'm frantic todayNo play
A million miles away
Tender is the night
I'm frantic todayTender is the night
I'm frantic today
