The Barflies
Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge
Evening has arrived the street lights are on
The barflies are in town
Same faces - same places
"Happy hour" right on time
The musician arrives
everybodys eyes are on him
singin' songs about the places that he's been
One about the time
he almost took the fall
and one about the one
he misses most of all
Sad faces - empty eyes
standin' in the dark
stay out of sight
Sad faces with all their traces
Welcome to the house of broken dreams
Gotta leave here tonight
before the mornin' light
Been here much too long
listen to the same old song
Now the moon is shining bright
leavin' now would be so right
