You came into my life like rain upon a barren desert
one smile and i was born again
i felt sure it wasn't too late
i'd find strength to make me go straight
i had love and threw it away
why did they lead me astray?
for last night in soho i let my life go
I never told you of some things i've done i'm so ashamed of
i thought my foolish past was over and done
i felt sure i'd make a new start
i tried with all of my heart
i had dreams and broke them in two
i'm just not worth of you!
for last night in soho i let my life go
Well, hi there, kid you ain't been around for quite some little while
see you got yourself a real cute doll you're living in style
but boy don't get above your station
if you don't want aggravation
got a little job for you
this is what you gotta do, boy!
That's how last night in soho i let my life go
Don't cry my baby as they lead me where no love can help me
don't stay around to watch me go
just forget there once was a time
you were proud to call yourself mine
i hade love right here in my hand
why could i not understand?
for last night in soho i let my life go
for last night in soho i let my life go
