Let Me Live - Jack Howard

Down by the jukebox

And the pool table is his

He’s a lovely man

He’s got a heart of gold

And he’s dreaming of 1982

And the Seaview Ballroom

He’s a lovely man

Lost his short term memory

But he sings hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Let me live, let me live, let me live

Let me live

Let me live

Says he still loves you

And you kiss him as a friend

He carries that kiss like a treasure

To have and to hold down in his dark corner

Outside the stars are shining

And the last tram rattles by He’s such a sweetheart

Don’t let it take you down

He sings hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Let me live, let me live, let me live

Let me live

Let me live

And he wonders down the strip searching

For food and luck and a last song for the evening

Something blue

Something emotional

That ghost down the road is friend of mine

Be kind to the spirit of the night

Something blue

Something emotional

He sings hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Let me live, let me live, let me live

Let me live

He sings hallelujah

Hallelujah, hallelujah

Que sera, que sera, que sera

Que sera

Let me live
