barrowland ballroom

Lyrics

oh the lights outside they're as bright as the sun, they're much brighter than anyone. oh the girls in the queue yes they're waiting for you, well they're waiting for their song to be sung. and when the night turns to day and all the people go away, it's not the same, tell me who's to blame?, and when the stars shine so bright on the cold december night, i wish that i was on that stage, oh won't you take a ride with me, through the barrowland history, and i'll sing you a song or two, people they may stop and stare but baby i, i just don't care it's, it's only me and you. and the drink and dance and drugs you know, it's all part of the show we go to, maybe i should tell you. that people they may stop and stare but baby i, i just don't care, tonight, it's only me and you. oh nothing beats the feeling of the high barrowland ceiling, when the band starts to play. won't you buy me a drink and i'll tell her what i think, if she gets in my way, and when the night turns to day and all the people go away, it's not the same, tell me who's to blame?, and when the stars shine so bright on the cold december night, i wish that i was on that stage, and when the night turns to day, and the lights they fade away, i wish that life and love would pass me by, and when the band stops a song because there's something going on, well there is magic in the air i swear. and i wish that i saw bowie, playing on that stage, i wish that i saw something, to make me come of age.
