All these broken dreams
Have made me see
That I am strung out, somebody rescue me

Well, do I have to tell you that I love you
Do I have to tell you that I care
Do I have to tell you that I need you to be
there

'Cos in the middle of the night
When I'm much too weak to fight
You know you're such a welcome sight
In the middle of the night, yeah

* On the boulevard of broken dreams
Yeah I talk so bad and I act so mean
On the boulevard of broken dreams
I gotta get back on my feet

And was it only yesterday
You came my way
Or was it just a while ago
And do I have to tell you you're my lover
Do I have to tell you I'm your slave
And so we have to dance until you're dreaming
On my grave

** And my lips are turning white
And my jaw is getting tight
And the sun is burning bright
In the middle of the night, yeah

On the boulevard of broken dreams
She'll eat your heart and she'll eat your face
On the boulevard of broken dreams
And I gotta get back on my feet

Do I have to tell you that I need you
Do I have to show you that I care
Do I have to lie and steal to have you
Do I have to sell myself somewhere
Then we can dance all night together
You'll be my queen, I'll be your slave
And can we stay awake forever
Until we're dancing on my grave

On the boulevard of broken dreams...
Boulevard of broken dreams...
