Linda Let Me Be The One

Midnight boys are outside

Scrapin' tears up off the street

Standing guard over the window

Where the lonely linda sleeps

There's a kid named eddie

Walks like an angel in defeat

The ashes of a romance come

Traces linda's name in a seat



Calls

Linda will you let me be the one

Linda will you, hey let me be the one

Linda will you let me be the one

Linda will you let me be the one



In a room full of contenders

Shadow boxin', eddie's strong

Till he drops through a feigned surrender

To the canvas draped in scarves

Stole from linda's bedroom

The night he laid at her feet

And the midnight boys were wasted

Down on king street



He calls out

Linda will you let me be the one

Linda will you, hey let me be the one

Linda will you let me be the one

Linda will you let me be the one



Midnight's base is st mary's

Midnight boys hide from the rain

Stay with the stolen sisters

Till the streets are dry again

Talking fast cars and chrome parts

Different worlds and strange girls

Empty homes, busted hearts

And kneeling with linda in the dark



Linda will you let me be the one

Linda will you, hey let me be the one

Linda will you let me be the one
