Searchlights on the skyline
just looking for a friend
who's gonna love my baby
when she's gone around the bend
egyptian bells are ringing
when it's her birthday
sweet nothin', i'm talking about you
there's a hurricane blowing your way
Ooh such a beautiful way
to break your heart
ooh such a beautiful way
to break my heart
there's someone calling your name
it's driving you insane
You were wearing that stained rained coat
and your umbrella was a tangled mess
you were washed up on the glittering shoals
looking for another crime to confess
you bribed yourself
out of a place in the sun
but you had some change to spare
so you said you want to spend it on me
and shook the blues out of your hair
Ooh such a beautiful way
to break your heart
ooh such a beautiful way
to break my heart
there's someone calling your name
you're gonna miss that train
