Al Stewart - Valentina Way

Find another lover tomorrow


Go find another lover today


You've been so long on lonely street


That you're surely falling into decay


It's time to reconstruct yourself


Time to test the water again


Well it's sad to see


It's a tragedy


That you're wasting away


Look around ... tell me


Is it really worth the price


That you pay


On Valentina Way





I don't think she's ready to listen


I don't think she wants to come back


The atmosphere's too cold in here


To attract a butterfly like that


I think she took the boat-train out


Maybe caught the night express


She's got devious lies


And chameleon eyes


And she can't care less


Oh, buy yourself a ticket


On anything leaving today


From Valentina Way





Oh the rain comes down


And shines up the stars


Oh, the night steps out


In streetlights and bars


To the sounds of guitars


Listen ...
