How can there be so much pain

Just livin' day to day it's easy

How can you be so sincere

When you're whispering in my ear you're crazy



Uptown squeeze traffic lust

It's paradise its lucky dust

Never bitter or out of luck

Double or nothin's hard enough

Where urban voices speak in tongues

Hold tight let's fall in love



I thought I knew you better

Yes I thought I did

I hope your dreams comes true

I hope they come true

We're in for nasty weather

Yeah I know it too

When I'm alone with you



How can you cry all these tears

When you're reeling in them years

How can you be so out of mind

When you eat me up alive



Uptown squeeze traffic lust

It's paradise its lucky dust

Never bitter or out of luck

Double or nothing's hard enough

Where urban voices speak in tongues

Hold tight let's fall in love

Oh yeah



I thought I knew you better

Yes I thought I did

I hope your dreams come true

I hope they come true

We're in for nasty weather

Yeah I know it too

When I'm alone with you



I thought I knew you better

Yes I thought I did

I hope your dreams come true

I hope they come true

We're in for nasty weather

Yeah I know it too

When I'm alone with you
