Close Watch Songtext
von John Cale

Never win, never lose

Never win and never lose
There′s nothing much to choose
Between the right and wrong
Never win, never lose

Nothing lost and nothing gained
Still things aren't quite the same
Between you and me

I still hear your voice at night
When I turn out the light
And try to settle down
But there′s nothing I can do (nothing lost, nothing gained)
I can't live without you (nothing lost)
I can't live without you (nothing gained)

You and me, you and me
You and me, you and me


I keep a close watch
I keep a close watch
I keep a close watch
I keep a close watch

A close watch, a close watch
A close watch, a close watch

(Never win and never los) I still hear your voice at night
(There′s nothing much to choose) I still hear your voice at night

I keep a close watch
I keep a close watch
I keep a close watch
I keep a close watch

I keep a close watch (turn up the lights)
I keep a close watch (turn up the lights)
I keep a close watch (turn up the lights)

Turn up the light
You and me
Turn up the light
(Oh, oh) turn up the light
Turn up the light


Nothing′s lost
Turn up the light
Nothing gained
Turn up the light
Nothing lost
Turn up the light
Nothing gained
Turn up the light

Nothing lost
Turn up the light
Nothing gained
Turn up the light
Nothing lost
Turn up the light
Nothing gained
