While the Band Keeps Playing on

It’s late in the evening
You’re running for the town
For the lights of the city
You ain’t ever slowing down
A penny for your sorrow
A score for your love
I’d give it all tomorrow
But it wouldn’t be enough

And the strings are in their places
The band starts the show
You left me a little high, sitting in the front row

Do you get a kick out of hurting someone?
While the band keeps playing on
Yeah you got a kick out of hurting someone
While the band keeps playing on

Some heartaches are pretty
Some are sweet
Some are for the movies
Baby that ain’t you and me

And I know it sounds foolish
But love I believed
That my heart in time would always be missed

But you got a kick out of hurting someone
While the band keeps playing on
Yeah you got a kick out of hurting someone
While the band keeps playing on

So play

Do you get a kick out of hurting someone?
While the band keeps playing on
You got a kick out of hurting someone
While the band keeps playing on
