Nicky's in the corner With a black coat on Running from a bad home With some cat inside Now where did you find her Among the neon lights That haunt the streets outside Stay with me Beautiful girl (stay with me) Beautiful girl (stay with me) She wants to go home From door way to door way Street corner to corner With neon ghosts in the city And she sings Stay with me Stay with me Stay with me Stay with me She's so scared So very frightened Anything could happen Right here tonight Beautiful girl (stay with me) Beautiful girl (stay with me) She wants to go home Beautiful girl (stay with me) Beautiful girl (stay with me) Beautiful girl (stay with me) Beautiful girl (stay with me)
