Life it slips right by you
Your dreams all left behind you
It's cold and rain is falling
A lonely day is dawning
Chorus:
O-o-o-oh, Green-eyed taxi rescue me
O-o-o-oh, Cause I'm half the man I used to be
O-o-o-oh, All of the loves I threw away
O-o-o-oh, And now my skies are turning grey
Love - the great surrender
Her arms so warm and tender
The high life, bet you've followed
Has left you sad and hollowed
Your dreams all left behind you
It's cold and rain is falling
A lonely day is dawning
Chorus:
O-o-o-oh, Green-eyed taxi rescue me
O-o-o-oh, Cause I'm half the man I used to be
O-o-o-oh, All of the loves I threw away
O-o-o-oh, And now my skies are turning grey
Love - the great surrender
Her arms so warm and tender
The high life, bet you've followed
Has left you sad and hollowed
