Selling Yourself in the Blue Light District
I'd like to thank you, you made me feel young at heart
Just when I thought that I might fall apart
'Cause time ain't on my side, it's slippin' away
And I'm not ready to be counted down, no way
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now
I found some pictures, I found some letters I forgot I had
I got some scissors, I put the pieces in a garbage can
'Cause, really, who needs a decade
to rid himself of all of these memories
When all he needed was a good girl,
who loves her mother, America, and maybe
Even someday me
A little kick, a look, a talk, a stalk, a call
just to get in your eardrum
How would I know from go fo' sho' that the best was yet to come
I'd like to thank you, you made me feel young at heart
Just when I thought that I might fall apart
'Cause time ain't on my side, it's slippin' away
And I'm not ready to be counted down, no way
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now
I saw the blizzard, I saw the highway that was such a mess
I got some earrings, and how could I forget the neck-a-lace
I finished workin' for the weekend,
then I packed my bag and headed north anyway
'Cause when you're divin' off the deep end,
you're gonna sink or swim, but you try to hit it either way
A little kick, a song, a list, a mix, some Prince
just to get in your eardrum
How would I know from go fo' sho' that the best was yet to come
I'd like to thank you, you made me feel young at heart
Just when I thought that I might fall apart
'Cause time ain't on my side, it's slippin' away
And I'm not ready to be counted down, no way
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now
I think you just saved a life tonight
I think you just saved a life tonight
I think you just saved a life tonight
I think you just saved a life tonight
I'd like to thank you, you've made me feel young at heart
Just when I thought that I might fall apart
'Cause time ain't on my side, it's slippin' away
And I'm not ready to be counted down, no way
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now
So let me thank you the only way that I know how
Come with me now

I think you just saved a life tonight
I think you just saved a life tonight
I'd like to thank you, you've made me feel young at heart
