all the girls and boys are dancing hand in hand another night romanced away they shimmer neath the party lights no they don t sleep at all the spend the night they celebrate all the faces that i know all the glitter and the gold washes away washes away until all that s left is blue until all i see is you walking away walking away the city after dark is ringing like a silver bell it knows my name it calls to me the bars are closing down the crowds are casting out reflections in the rain the empty streets all the faces that i know all the glitter and the gold washes away washes away until all that s left is blue until all i see is you walking away walking away i lost my heart before i found it i didn t know how i felt about it i didn t know how i felt about it all the faces that i know all the glitter and the gold washes away washes away until all that s left is blue until all i see is you walking away walking away
