I'll tell you somethin', I am a wolf

Hey, hey, the clouds are whey
See her laughing, talking
I'm in the dark, I'd like to read his mind
Funny how I find myself
Since you've been gone
Take your baby by the hand
I hurt myself today
Don't tell me you don't know what love is
Soldier soldier
Is it wrong to want to live on your own?
Now the party's over
Let me take you on a trip
Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Yeah, I want to travel south this year
Hey (hey) What's the matter with your head? yeah...
There's an army on the dance floor
Debonair lullabies in melodies revealed
Let it never be said that the romance is dead
We walked in the cold air
You're such an inspiration for the ways
