I would love to be the lucky one on Chill Avenue Who could keep your heart warm when ice has turned it blue But then you see the losers as they turn in for the night I'm looking back for home and I can see the lightsI should be jumpin' shoutin' that I made it all this way From Camden Town Station to 44th and 8th Not many make it this far and many say we're great But just like them we walk on, we can't escape our fateCan't you hear the sighing?
