Lyrics of So many nights

It doesn't matter what i say, doesn't matter what i do
It seems i'm gonna have to change my look for you
'cause i've got two shoes but they've been walked too far
And i think that we could float from evening to the stars

When i see you in the distance with your friends
I look around and i look down at my threads
It's inappropriate that i should present like
A retired matador with unpaid rent

So many nights, i'm still thinking 'bout you
And so many nights you step in and i walk through
So he doesn't care, 'cept he still combs his hair
So what am i supposed to do?

I bought a suit and i bought a top hat
I put a red stripe down the side of my slacks
Went to the barber got my hair cut high
And i bought a ticket for the opera tonight

But when i see you, your bodice and your pride
It's nice to greet you with an interrupted stride, besides
You say good evening, you don't say goodnight
And i can't deny that

So many nights, i'm still thinking 'bout you
And so many nights until i changed my suit
And when i'm bare don't need to comb my hair
'cause i found what to do

Put your waistcoat on
