Five o'clock, market shops are closing down The metal doors are slowly rolling down The crowd is thinning, mothers putting babies in their cars The sun is fading, streetlights are turning on I am walking the streets by myself, wandering around Searching for all the familiar faces But everybody's going home way too early Marching bands and all the summer parades Left the town and now there's just a few street walkers The wind is blowing, blowing off the party hats on their heads Round and round and round they go, they're looking for a sign of a place still open I am walking the streets by myself, wandеring around Searching for all the familiar faces But еverybody's going home way too early Where did all the people go? Why didn't they let me know? I know the party ain't gonna last forever but I guess I was hoping you'd stay a little longer But everybody's going home way to early Lovers wash their tables and tuck their babies in the nest Teachers wash their chalkboards and wish their students all the best Musicians turn their amps off and they walk on off the stage SongtexteBut I am still standing here I tell you I am still standing, standing right here I'm here vibing with the DJ as the staffer sweeps the floor I'm still waiting on my old friends but they ain't here no more Bartender makes his last call as the house lights kill the room But I am still standing here I tell you I am still standing, standing right here Where did all my loves go, why did they all go? I wish it could be like yesterday when we were rock and roll I must have been out on the secret 'cause I am here alone I am still standing right here I am still standing, standing right here Aus Songtexte Mania
