Gonna write my girl a letter
A hundred million things I could say
'Cause when I'm looking in the mirror
The truth is getting closer each day
She got heart, she got soul
Yeah, she's my little rock and roll
She had everything I needed
And now I'm left with nothing at all
And your momma said I let you down
And your daddy doesn't want me arond
Well, I wish I'd stop my messin' now
But I'm the talk of the town
Can you believe it?
We're the talk of the town
Can you believe it?
Are you ever gonna give me
Another chance to make it real?
I wanna make it up, darling
And show ya just how I feel
When I saw you on the street
You smiled at everyone but me
I guess that's how you wanna play it
But babe, it's just a losing game
Since you left me in the lost and found
I've been singing "The Tears of a Clown"
I wish I'd stop my messin' now
But I'm the talk of the town
Can you believe it?
We're the talk of the town
Can you believe it?
Many things I wanna say
I should've told you yesterday
Just bide my time, you'll come around
I never meant to let you down
You know that we can make it
If you just give it time
We have the world in our hands
Let's give it one more try
Can you believe it?
♪
I can't believe it
All this wasted time
You're always on my mind
I miss you, darling
Can you believe it?
We're the talk of the town
Can you believe it?
We're the talk of the town
Can you believe
We're the talk of the town?
Oh, yeah
Talk of the town
Just the talk of the town
We're the talk of the town
