I went to play on St-John's Street.

I was hoping that you would come and see me,

and we could finally meet.

But you didn't show up,

even though I played a whole week.



You most have someone.

I hope that he's a nice guy.

Yes I hope that someone

knows how to make you smile.



And went you're down,

he holds you when you cry,

without having a resson, without even asking why.



Cause I know, you have sorrow in your eyes.

I know, that it's been there for a long long while.

I know, but I don't mind so do I, We're both the same kind.



I saw you a few years ago,

but for you, I was only a child.

You probably don't remenber me,

but I do, you sure made me shy.



It was when my feelings

meant more than sex,

those were the times.

Your beauty caressed my inside,

like a warm summer wind

blowing on chimes.



Cause I know, you have sorrow in your eyes.

I know, that it's been there for a long long while.

Yes I know, but I don't mind so do I, we're both the same kind.



And as I savour this bottle of wine.

I'll try to forget this cruel world full of crime.

I'll think of you for confort once and a while.

And even if I'm not in you're heart, you're in mine.



Cause I know, you have sorrow in your eyes.

I know, that it's been there for a long long while.

I know, but I don't mind so do I,

we're both the same kind
