Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark Big Town Lyrics

I discovered a big town
 On the crest of a wave
 Throwing money at strangers
 Taking candy from babes
 Shaking hands with the big top (?)
 As the rain came down
 I thought it would not stop
 Sending letters to Paris
 From the Empire State
 Taking pictures from the top.
 [chorus]:
 There's a lot of things
 For you to do...
 There's a lot of dreams
 That won't come true.
 I grew up in a big town
 The lessons were not hard to learn.
 If you want them to love you,
 Then you must not love them, in return.
 Spent the night at a party
 Where I drank so much
 I fell under your spell...
 Eight o'clock in the morning
 And the daylight makes me
 Look and feel like hell.
 
 
 When you live in a big town
 There are sights and sounds
 That make you
 Want to cry...
