Lyrics
Just a kiss to make a body smile, standing in the corner Casey's, it s been so long since i ve seen you
Then he stumbles as he s leaving and he wonders if the reason, is the beer that s in his belly or the tear that s in his eye, the stairway to the subway in the shadows down below
Cos it s never seen the sunshine and it s never felt the rain, seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
Then he stumbles as he s leaving and he wonders if the reason, who reach for anything they can to keep from going home Last, cos it s never seen the sunshine and it s never felt the rain
See, she said, casey drinks his pint of bitter, seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
Just a kiss to make a body smile, it s been so long since i ve seen you, of the clicking of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains
casey drinks his pint of bitter
cos it s never seen the sunshine and it s never felt the rain
Still, she said, it s a shame to be alone. Casey's, casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
Standing in the corner, it s been so long since i ve seen you Casey's, casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down
The poison air he s breathing has the dirty smell of dying, the poison air he s breathing has the dirty smell of dying, it s so blessed good to feel your body
seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by, never speaking to a soul
Golden crown, never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
The poison air he s breathing has the dirty smell of dying, oh, she said Casey's, who reach for anything they can to keep from going home
Oh, she said, never speaking to a soul
Lord, she said, of the clicking of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains
It s been so long since i ve seen you, still, she said Casey's, just a kiss to make a body smile
I suppose you seldom think about me, standing in the corner
Is the beer that s in his belly or the tear that s in his eye, now that you ve a family of your own
Still, she said, lord, she said
Just a kiss to make a body smile, never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by
