On the corner of my life
The road leads in two directions
One that’s proved with satisfactions
The other one’s leading right to you

And for the first time I stood still
‘Cause I’d never been so lonely
Should I try to love you only
Or should I have to be alone

And (yes) I tried to run away my love
But you’re callin’ each day my love
And where the streets seem slippy and bare
Look at me I’ll be fallin’ down
Don’t know what I can do
Simply to be with you

On the corner of my life
Children press their little noses
Against a window-pane with roses
And a bar where music played

Oh I must have been a child
‘Cause it took so long I’d chosen
I’m glad the barman said: “I’m closin'”
So I walked right up to you

And (yes) I tried to run away my love
But you’re callin’ each day my love
And where the streets seem slippy and bare
