As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries 'cause if there's one thing that she don't need It's another hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto People, don't you understand The child needs a helping hand Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day Take a look at you and me, Are we too blind to see, Do we simply turn our heads And look the other way Well the world turns And a hungry little boy with a runny nose Plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto And his hunger burns So he starts to roam the streets at night And he learns how to steal And he learns how to fight In the ghetto Then one night in desperation The young man breaks the rules He buys a gun, steals a car, Tries to run, but he don't get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man Face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto As her young man dies, On a cold and gray Chicago mornin', Another little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries |

Any day now I will hear you say
Goodbye my love You'll be on your way Then my wild beautiful bird You will have flown Any day now I'll be all alone Oh, oh, oh Any day now, when your restless eyes Meet someone new To my sad surprise Then the blue shadow will fall all over town Any day now Love will let me down Oh, oh, oh I know I shouldn't want to keep you If you don't want to stay, yeah Until you've gone forever I'll be holding on for dear life Holding you this way Begging you to stay Any day now When the clock strikes go You'll call it off Then my tears will flow Then the blue shadow will fall all over town Any day now Love will let me down Oh, oh, oh Oh, any day now Oh, oh, oh Oh, any day now Don't fly away my beautiful bird Don't fly away my beautiful bird |
