Police cars round in circles 
The silence gathering
You never know what`s next down here
Close your eyes and shut your mouth
Chorus 
And I know I won`t last forever 
If there`s nothing left in your heart for me 
Baby, baby, baby, baby 
Too young to die and too old 
To believe in 
Promises 
The ambulance is singing 
To streetcars in the rain 
Like barracuda waiting 
For the guns down in the hood 
Chorus
But this ain`t no West Side Story
And the curtain`s comin` down on me 
Baby, baby, baby, baby 
Too young to die and too old 
To believe in 
Promises 
It`s all sound and all fury 
It`s all reach and no touch 
It`s all life`s cold bravado 
All grown up and old so fast 
Chorus
And I know I won`t last forever 
If there`s nothing left in your heart for me 
Baby, baby, baby, baby 
Too young to die and too old 
I`m too young to die and too old 
To believe in
Promises 
Na na na na -- we all walk alone
