A Song for Gail (What Have We Got Her Into?)

Now my dear, don't forget to write
notice any day or night
have you got your money here's your case wipe the tear from your face
so she took the south bound train
would she ever see again
that place, that town, that road
or are they just a memory

She heard the strangest saying
are you going overweight
i'm a big man in town
here's my number come around
could this really be what it seems
all diamonds 35 star dreams
could this happen to me,
he could turn out to be
The man in my love story

another road, another lane
another face, another name
another man, another night
what have we got her into?
another faded hotel room
an overrated changing tune
another face, another night
what have we got her into?

do-do do-do
do-do do-do-do
do-do do-do-do
do-do do-do-do
do-do do-do-do
do-do- do-do-do do-do
do-do-do do do do

another road, another lane
another face, another name
another man, another night
what have we got her into?
another faded hotel room
an overrated changing tune
another face, another night
what have we got her into?

"there's nothing we could do" he cried
took the letter from his side
she didn't like the game
no one even knew her name
no more playing with the wrong crowd now
if only she had- but, what's the difference what's been or what should
that's another story

another road, another lane
another face, another name
another man, another night
what have we got her into?
another faded hotel room
an overrated changing tune
another face or another night
what have we got her into?

another road, another lane
another face, another day
another man, another night
what have we got her into?
another faded hotel room
an overrated changing tune
another face or another night
what have we got her into?
