Frankie

[Verse 1]
Dark weekends in the sun out on Chelsea Road
Descending the stairs, oh Frankie, my one
Check your makeup in the mirror, c'mon babe, let's go
We'll dance 'round this dirty town 'til the night is all done
Let all the finer things sleep alone tonight
Let all the minor kings lose their thrones tonight
Don't worry about us, baby, we'll be alright

[Verse 2]
Well, everybody's dyin', this town's closing down
They're all sittin' down at the courthouse waiting for 'em to take the flag down
I see strange flashes in the sky up above
Gonna spend the night at the drive-in with the one that I love
At dusk, the stars all appear on the screen
Yeah, just like they do each night in my dreams
But tonight's no dream, Frankie, I can feel myself too
Well, now and forever, babe, my love is for you
(Here we go, hit it)

[Chorus]
Walk softly tonight, little stranger
Yeah, into these shadows we're passin' through
Talk softly tonight, little angel
You make all my dream worlds come true (Whoo)

[Harmonica Solo]

[Verse 3]
Well, lately I've been standin' out in the freezin' rain
Readin' them want ads out on Chelsea Road
I'm wingin' down the street in search of new games
Hustlin' through these nightlights' diamond glow
Well, Frankie, I don't know what I'm gonna find
Maybe nothin' at all, maybe a world I can call mine
Shinin' like these streetlights down here on the strand
Bright as the rain in the palm of your hand

[Chorus]
Walk softly tonight, little stranger
Into the shadows where lovers go
Talk softly to me, little angel
Whisper your secrets so soft and low
Walk softly tonight, little stranger
Into the shadows where lovers go
Talk softly to me, little angel
Whisper your secrets so soft and low
Talk softly tonight, little angel
Into the shadows where lovers go
Talk softly to me, little stranger
Whisper your secrets, babe, soft and low

[Post-Chorus]
Talk softly to me
Talk softly to me
Talk softly to me
Talk softly to me

[Harmonica Solo]
One two three, go

[Saxophone Solo]
One two three, go
