You came into my life like rain upon a barren desert One smile and I was born again I felt sure it wasn't too late I'd find strength to make me go straight I had love and threw it away Why did they lead me astray? For last night in Soho I let my life go I never told you of some things I've done I'm so ashamed of I thought my foolish past was over and done I would prove I'd make a new start I tried with all of my heart I had dreams and broke them in two I'm just not worthy of you! For last night in Soho I let my life go Well, hi there, kid, you ain't been around for quite some little while See you got yourself a real cute doll, you're living in style But boy, don't get above your station If you don't want aggravation Got a little job for you This is what you gotta do, boy! That's how last night in Soho I let my life go Don't cry my baby as they lead me where no love can help me Don't stay around to watch me go Just forget there once was a time You were proud to call yourself mine I had love right here in my hand Why could I not understand? For last night in Soho I let my life go For last night in Soho I let my life go
