letra de bright lights & promises [live on the old grey whistle test] - janis ian

Loading...

[verse 1]
bright lights and promises
a pocket full of dreams
ain’t that what they pay me to be?
gold lamé and diamonds
yes i am a hometown queen
honey, would you sing it just for me?

[verse 2]
when i was good
and then i was bad
i never thought i’d end up this way
with no dreams to hide me
bright lights to guide me
how long does it take to make the grade?
[bridge]
everywhere i hear
a ringing in my ears
drummer, let your music play
gimme small-town blues
make it loud, make it do
listen to my music sway

[verse 3]
you got bar rails and c-cktails
and “have you got a light?”
ain’t that what it pays to keep in sight?
overused and much abused
promises of dеlight
honey, would you care to spend thе night?

[verse 4]
take a little time
some memories and wine
loosen up the sucker by the bar
and if he wants to hold you
if he wants to know you
honey, that’s what you’re here for

[bridge]
until all i see
is them reaching out for me
drummer, play that old-time melody
[verse 5]
bright lights and promises
ain’t that what it’s for?
leave and enter by the service door
now i’m gold lamé and diamonds
even if my gold is worn
honey, can you show me more?
