[Intro] (2nd Position) (3rd Position) / / / [Verse 1] You tell me this town ain't got no heart. Well, well, well, you can never tell. The sunny side of the street is dark. Well, well, well, you can never tell. [Bridge 1] Maybe that's cause it's midnight, And the dark of the moon besides. Maybe the dark is from your eyes (maybe the dark is from your eyes). Maybe the dark is from your eyes (maybe the dark is from your ey es). Maybe the dark is from your eyes (maybe the dark is from your eyes). You know you got such dark eyes.

Well, well, well, you can never tell. [Bridge 2] It's not because you missed out On the things that we had to start. Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast). Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fa st). Maybe you had too much too fast (maybe you had too much too fast). Or just overplayed your part. [Chorus] Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street; used to be the heart of town. Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un sentiment d'aliénation et de nostalgie face à une ville qui semble avoir perdu son âme. Les paroles suggèrent que, derrière les apparences, il y a toujours une profondeur cachée à découvrir, et que l'on ne doit pas juger une ville sur sa façade. Les yeux sombres de la personne à qui s'adresse le chanteur symbolisent peut-être des blessures ou des souvenirs qui obscurcissent la vision de la beauté environnante. À travers cette mélodie, il y a une invitation à explorer et à croire qu'il y a encore de la vie et du cœur à trouver, même dans les endroits qui semblent délaissés. Les allusions au temps qui passe et aux expériences manquées renforcent cette notion de recherche de ce qui se cache derrière une apparente monotonie.
