Don't Sleep In The Subway:Petula Clark.
#12 in UK and #5 in USA in 1967.

#1.
                                 
You wander around on your own little cloud,
                                        
when you don't see the why or the wherefore.
                                
You walk out on me, when we both disagree,
                                     
cause to reason is not what you care for.
                               
I've heard it all a million times, before.
                                        
Take off your coat, my love, and close the door.

CHORUS:
                         
Don't sleep in the subway, darling.
                         
Don't stand in the pouring rain.
                         
Don't sleep in the subway, darling.
                    
The night is long, forget your foolish pride.
                                 
Nothing's wrong, now you're beside me again.

#2.
                                     
You try to be smart, then you take it to heart.
                                    
Cause it hurts when your ego is deflated.
                                    
You don't realize, that it's all compromise,
                             
and the problems are so overrated.
                                  
Goodbye means nothing when it's all for show,
                                     
so why pretend you've somewhere else to go?

CHORUS:
                         
Don't sleep in the subway, darling.
                         
Don't stand in the pouring rain.
                         
Don't sleep in the subway, darling.
                    
The night is long, forget your foolish pride.
                                 
Nothing's wrong, now you're beside me again.

CHORUS:
                         
Don't sleep in the subway, darling.
                         
Don't stand in the pouring rain.
                         
Don't sleep in the subway, darling.
                    
The night is long, forget your foolish pride.
                                 
Nothing's wrong, now you're beside me again.
