Out of place like a paper moon
In the dead of the afternoon
All that I can do is dream
That all that sky above me is not as empty as it seems

Walking through this masquerade 
Of neon signs on this cheap parade
Girl, I'm looking out for you
A diamond in the gutter, a note that's ringing true

So take me to heart, sweet darling 
Take me to heart and I'll stay
A man like me could love you
So take me to heart I say

She'll come down like an angel fair
I'll turn a corner, she'll be waiting there
I won't have to know her name
To know that all this living hasn't been in vain

So take me to heart, sweet darling 
Take me to heart and I'll stay
A man like me could love you
So take me to heart I say

So take me to heart, sweet darling 
Take me to heart and I'll stay
A man like me could love you
So take me to heart 
Take me to heart 

Take me to heart, sweet darling 
Take me to heart and I'll stay
A man like me could love you
So take me to heart I say
