Another Face in the Crowd Lyrics

Another face in the crowd

Another crack in the cup

I let this love trickle out

I guess you fooled me somehow

And now I can't clean it up

Under those street city lights

You meet em all of the time

Another star in your eyes

You tell em sweet pretty lies

Then you leave them behind

I hate to admit it

I got swept away

And I hate even more

That I wish you had stayed

I'm bereft in your absence

And these thoughts that still echo your name

Woulda bet all my life

On your promises grand

Was this act disappearance

Or trained slight of hand

Daddy raised me no fool

But I folded my cards just the same

Another face in the crowd

Another crack in the cup

I let this love trickle out

I guess you fooled me somehow

And now I can't clean it up

Under those street city lights

You meet em all of the time

Another star in your eyes

You tell em sweet pretty lies

Then you leave them behind

We'd orbit each other

Our mysterious dance

But like a twister at night

No there wasn't a chance

As I reached for a thread of you

My hands filled with nothing but time

To be fair I'm not certain

You know what you've done

But a friend to them all

Is a friend to no one

Best to settle it now

Grind this truth with my teeth now that I'm

Another face in the crowd

Another crack in the cup

I let this love trickle out

I guess you fooled me somehow

And now I can't clean it up

Under those street city lights

You meet em all of the time

Another star in your eyes

You tell em sweet pretty lies

Then you leave them behind

But the moon and stars don't shine

Like how we shined

I can't bring myself to believe that I'm not

The one woman stuck in your mind

Yeah I'll try to forget it

I won't ever admit it

It's you that I wanted for life

When you search from that circle you won't ever place me cause I'm

Another face in the crowd

Another crack in the cup

I let this love trickle out

I guess you fooled me somehow

But I still can't clean this up, no

Under those cheap city lights

You meet em all of the time

Another star in your eyes

You tell em sweet pretty lies

And then you leave them behind

Another star in your eyes

You tell em sweet pretty lies

And then you leave them behind

Another star in your eyes

You and your beautiful lies

You went and left me behind
