I made my selection from the lonely hit parade
In the town where time stood still
I was feeling very little pain
Until some joker played "Almost Persuaded"
Now every girl I see
Looks so much prettier to me
My faithfulness has faded
And I say I don't want trouble
But I find myself back in it
In the town where time stood still
I am the man of the minute
Teach me to say "I love you"
I'll teach you to say "You will do"
In the town where time stood still
Or maybe I can find a little girl
To wind me up with all the usual spells
There's nothing else to do but rearrange somebody's future
And check your figures in the until
The bar is full of girls just like the creature with the curse
And the food is just like cabaret and vice versa
In the town where time stood still
And so I saw her through the smoke and empty beers
In the town where time stood still
She might have well have waited years
I suppose we did some things we used to do
But no amount of darkness could ever turn her into you
And so I woke up in the town where time stood still
With a headache and a heartache
And a handful of pills
And a welcome mat, a scandal rag and unpaid bills
With a headache and heartache
And an hour or two to kill
I only wish we were together
In the town where time stood still
In the town where time stood still
In the town where time stood still
