Worried sick my eyes are hurtingTo rest my head I'd take a lifeOutside the girls are dancing'Cause when you're down it just don't seem right Feeling second fiddle to a dead manUp to my neck with your disregardLike a beat dog that's walking on the broadwayNo one wants to hear you when you're down Sister luck is screaming out Somebody else's nameSister luck is screaming outSomebody else's name A flip of a coinMight make a head turnNo surprise, who sleepsHeld my hand over a candleFlame burnin' but I never weep Sister luck is screaming out Somebody else's nameSister luck is screaming outSomebody else's name What a shame (Repeat 2nd Chorus)

How could I've been so blindSo empty that I've never felt warmCan I spell it outTurn myself out of my homeLookin' like a foolFeelin' even worse than it seemsTryin' hard as nailsBelievin' only in myself And now it looks like innocence is goneI know right and I know what's wrongFeeling lonely that's the way it goesSometimes But my greatest fearPaint a smile from ear to earAlone and cryin'Living like this is no better than dying I tell you baby things are gonna' changeLooking like we were caught out in the rainFeeling lonelyThat's the way it goesSometimes Chorus: Could I ever have been so blindCould I ever have been so blindCould I ever have been so blindCould I ever have been so blind SoloCould I ever have been so blindCould I ever have been so blind Hardest thing I ever had to doWas stand up straight and tell it all to youLook you right in the eyeTell you baby sorry but I have lied And now it looks like innocence is goneI know right and I know what's wrongFeeling lonely that's the way it goesSometimes (Repeat Chorus 4 times)
