I'm thinking back, baby, to you and me
To the way you used to be
Your words come back to me
Their voices sing out in empty bars
We walked and talked enough
We'd be the lucky ones to get out
Said no, baby butler, pray
No old baby but the brave
something from what they gave
No old baby but the brave
No old baby but the brave
Now in dreams these nights
The way you were back then
I know that girl no longer exists
Except for a moment in some
When an aimless girl in cars rushing by
That's where I find you tonight
And in my heart it still survives
Oh, strong enough to save
Something from the love they gave
And now tonight once more,
I search every face on the crowded floor
Looking for I don't know what for,
something that ain't there no more
There's a girl standing by the band,
As the drummer counts his play
I take her hand and remove her grey
And tonight, I'll see old friends
Caught in things they got
Just getting beaten and playing again
Till their strength gets out
and who shall be pushed aside
Baby, I'm not baby but the brain
Not one baby but the brain
Not one baby but the brain
