As the fog rolls into my street light
I tips me hat to the moon
Music plays in the cabaret
The painted singer croons

I creep away into the night
I break a heart so cruel
I creep away into the night
The arms of love are cool

Strike a match for Marlena
Faces jump in the dark
She's as blue as an old tattoo
Where Jimmy boy left his mark

I creep away into the night
I break a heart so cruel
I creep away into the night
The arms of love are cool

Ships they sail for Valhalla
Ships collide in the night
Red stripe Boy down in the sea
His heart's upon the knife

I creep away into the night
I break a heart so cruel
I creep away into the night
The arms of love are cool

The arms of love are cool
