Did you ever see the faces of the children They get so excited Waking up on Christmas morning Hours before the winter sun's ignited
They believe in dreams and all they mean Including heavens generosity Peeping 'round the door To see what parcels are for free in curiosity
And Tommy doesn't know what day it is He doesn't know who Jesus was or what praying is How can he be saved from the eternal grave?
Surrounded by his friends he sits so silently And unaware of everything Playing poxy pinball Picks his nose and smiles and pokes his tongue at everything
I believe in love but how can men Who've never seen light be enlightened? Only if he's cured Will his spirits future level ever heighten
And Tommy doesn't know what day it is He doesn't know who Jesus was or what praying is How can he be saved from the eternal grave?
Tommy can you hear me? Tommy can you hear me? Tommy can you hear me? Tommy can you hear me? Tommy can you hear me? Can you, can you, can you hear me? How can he be saved?

There's a girl in Room 12 And she's waiting for me For the past seven days But I haven't been free I got a wife back at home, and a life, no regret Still I think about her face, and I just can't forget
A girl in Room 12, and she's waiting alone She waits in the bed with her head by the phone She can't understand why it just couldn't be A girl in Room 12, and she's waiting for me
Girl in Room 12 Girl in Room 12 Girl in Room 12
Well, she came from New York And she moved to this town Took a one-room apartment For no money down She feel so alone and she needed a man Now I just can't recall how it got out of hand
A girl in Room 12, and she's waiting alone She waits in the bed with her head by the phone She can't understand why it just couldn't be A girl in Room 12, and she's waiting for me
Little baby, are you all alone tonight? In my dreams, you love me, everything's all right Should have told you that I loved you all along When I try to speak, the words all come out wrong
And I'm still enchanted by your funny ways And I'm gonna love you for the rest of my days And heaven is never very far, anywhere you are
In my lonely room, I think of you again Lazy afternoons and gentle falling rain Night and day and all these tears I cry for you Can't believe this is the end, goodbye, we're through
'Cause I'm still enchanted by your funny ways And I'm gonna love you for the rest of my days And heaven is never very far, anywhere you are
And I'm still enchanted by your funny ways And I'm gonna love you for the rest of my days And heaven is never very far, anywhere you are
Little baby, are you all alone tonight? In my dreams, you love me, everything's all right Should have told you that I loved you all along When I try to speak, the words all come out wrong
And I'm still enchanted by your funny ways And I'm still gonna love you for the rest of my days And heaven is never very far, anywhere you are
And I'm still enchanted by your funny ways And I'm still gonna love you for the rest of my days And heaven is never very far, anywhere you are
It was just yesterday That I saw your face Looking in my window I can't recall the place we first met It seems, but I guess that you know
Hadn't thought about it For a long, long time But still she's here inside me Never off my mind I try to hide it from you, but you know And I hear it over and over again
Do you recall the day I first came your way? And I had to know you When you stepped in the way And I smiled at you Though I never meant to
Hadn't thought about it For a long, long time But still she's here inside me Never off my mind I try to hide it from you, but you know And I hear it over and over again
You can talk about tomorrow All your talkin' doesn't mean a thing All our yesterdays are sorrow Can't stop remembering
Hadn't thought about it For a long, long time But still she's here inside me Never off my mind I try to hide it from you, but you know And I hear it over and over again
It was just yesterday That I saw your face Looking in my window I can't recall the place we first met It seems, but I guess that you know
Hadn't thought about it For a long, long time But still she's here inside me Never off my mind I try to hide it from you, but you know And I hear it over and over again
Ran into a friend I used to know yesterday It's all right, it's all right, it's all right Used to have a lot, but there was nothing to say Then he said take your time and good night
It's all right if you want to come home It's all right if you're better alone Since you left yesterday Black and white has turned gray It's all right
Wake up, morning coffee, and there's nothing to say I am cold in the bed in the night Had a lot of fun, but that won't change yesterday Don't you know I still leave on the light?
It's all right if you want to come home It's all right if you're better alone Since you left yesterday Black and white has turned gray It's all right
The same old story, gotta hear it again I keep on bringin' you down It makes no difference what a fool I've been The world keeps turning around The world keeps turning around
It's all right if you want to come home It's all right if you're better alone Since you left yesterday Black and white has turned gray It's all right
Ran into a girl I used to know yesterday It's all right, it's all right now and then Used to have a lot, but there was nothing to say It's all right, it's all right in the end
It's all right if you want to come home It's all right if you're better alone Since you left yesterday Black and white has turned gray It's all right
If you want to say goodbye, I'll wait for your reply (And) when you're walkin' down the street, you'll know the reason why If you call me on the phone, you'll find that I have gone And when he whispers in your ear you'll know that you were wrong
If you want the sun to shine If you want this heart of mine If you want the sun If you want the sun If you want the sun to shine
If you call me by name, there won't be words to say And when you pass me on the street I'll look the other way If you think I wait for you, you've got a lot to learn And if you plan to change your mind, don't wait for my return
If you want the sun to shine If you want this heart of mine If you want the sun If you want the sun If you want the sun to shine
The sun won't shine anymore The way it used to before Since you have taken from me The things that once used to be
If you want the sun If you want the sun If you want the sun to shine If you want to say goodbye I'll wait for your reply (And) when you're walkin' down the street, you'll know the reason why If you call me on the phone, you'll find that I have gone And when he whispers in your ear you'll know that you were wrong
If you want the sun to shine If you want this heart of mine If you want the sun If you want the sun If you want the sun to shine
