Janis Ian
Party Lights [Live at the Sydney Opera House]
[Verse 1]
Party lights
Is there anybody here tonight?
Doesn't anybody have a light?
Honey, I invite
Your party life

[Verse 2]
Party lights
Champagne and caviar
Cocaine and Shalimar
Don't push too far
Your party life

[Chorus 1]
People tell me that I'm fading fast
I can last
The whole night through
Everybody, now it's closing time
I can't find
My way to you

[Verse 3]
Don't lose your head
Remember all those things your mama said
But every vampire here appears well fed
You look half-dead
They ain't like you, kid
[Verse 4]
Party games
Somebody pinned a needle in me and I wеnt insane
Walking on the edgе of the line in the driving rain
I felt no pain
It's a hell of a game

[Chorus 2]
People tell me there's an end to this
One last kiss
Turns into two
Everybody, don't leave now
I don't know how
I'm gonna make it through

[Bridge]
Heady wine
You're movin' too slow for me—can't keep time
Watchin' a silent movie for a sign
In my prime
Heady wine

You move too slow
I'm drowning—don't let go
I'm drowning, and I can't say no
So keep it low
It's a hell of a show
[Chorus 1]
People tell me that I'm fading fast
Honey, I can last
The whole night trough
Everybody, now it's closing time
I can't find
My way to you
