Testo

Five o'clock, market shops are closing down
The metal doors are slowly rolling down
The crowd is thinning, mothers putting babies in their cars
The sun is fading, streetlights are turning on

I am walking the streets by myself, wandering around
Searching for all the familiar faces
But everybody's going home way too early

Marching bands and all the summer parades
Left the town and now there's just a few street walkers
The wind is blowing, blowing off the party hats on their heads
Round and round and round they go, they're looking for a sign of a place still open

I am walking the streets by myself, wandеring around
Searching for all the familiar faces
But еverybody's going home way too early

Where did all the people go?
Why didn't they let me know?
I know the party ain't gonna last forever but I guess I was hoping you'd stay a little longer
But everybody's going home way to early

Lovers wash their tables and tuck their babies in the nest
Teachers wash their chalkboards and wish their students all the best
Musicians turn their amps off and they walk on off the stage
But I am still standing here
I tell you I am still standing, standing right here

I'm here vibing with the DJ as the staffer sweeps the floor
I'm still waiting on my old friends but they ain't here no more
Bartender makes his last call as the house lights kill the room
But I am still standing here
I tell you I am still standing, standing right here

Where did all my loves go, why did they all go?
I wish it could be like yesterday when we were rock and roll
I must have been out on the secret 'cause I am here alone
I am still standing right here
I am still standing, standing right here
