Slow Town

(álbum: Careful - 1980)

Found him down in slow town
Where people don't pretend to hear
Feel something very different
When he's near

Hold so still while studying
Looking at the sad regime
Feel something very different
When he's near

And he could never be
Another fool
He could never be
Anyone's fool

Once and then another time
He came so close to me
I know that he's not what
He seems to be

Suspended admiration
Holds me looking into his eyes
I know now what they said
Has to be lies

'Cause he could never be
Another fool
I know that he
Could never be cruel
He could never be
Anyone's fool

Found him down in slow town
Where people don't pretend to hear
Feel something very different
When he's near

And he could never be
Another fool
I know that he
Could never be cruel
He could never be
Anyone's fool
