How can there be so much pain 
Just livin' day to day it's easy 
How can you be so sincere 
When you're whispering in my ear you're crazy 
Uptown squeeze traffic lust 
It's paradise its lucky dust 
Never bitter or out of luck 
Double or nothin's hard enough 
Where urban voices speak in tongues 
Hold tight let's fall in love 
I thought 
I knew you better 
Yes I thought 
I did I hope your dreams comes true 
I hope they come true 
We're in for nasty weather 
Yeah I know it too 
When I'm alone with you 
How can you cry all these tears 
When you're reeling in them years 
How can you be so out of mind 
When you eat me up alive 
Uptown squeeze traffic lust 
It's paradise its lucky dust 
Never bitter or out of luck 
Double or nothing's hard enough 
Where urban voices speak in tongues 
Hold tight let's fall in love 
Oh yeah I thought 
I knew you better 
Yes I thought 
I did I hope your dreams come true 
I hope they come true 
We're in for nasty weather 
Yeah I know it too 
When I'm alone with you 
I thought 
I knew you better 
Yes I thought 
I did I hope your dreams come true 
I hope they come true 
We're in for nasty weather 
Yeah I know it too 
When I'm alone with you
