From the recording Be Gay Do Crime: My Cover Story
Lyrics
The noise was loud on Fourth Street,
A lonely soul in Fado's that night
I was lost in a hollow beat
My hopes were thin, my head was tight
Then I saw you through the hazy glow
A quiet calm I came to know
Oh, with your dark hair and your gentle way
You saved my life that lonely day
You pulled me from the shades of blue
And showed me what true love could do
You talked to me of simple things
Over a perfect, dark Guinness pint
I felt the joy a new day brings
My faded world got a whole new light
In a wooden booth in Fado's walls, the noise just faded away
I knew with you I had to stay
Oh, with your dark hair and your gentle way
You saved my life that fateful day
You pulled me from the shades of blue
And showed me what true love could do
They say love finds you in the end
In an old Irish pub, with a faithful friend
It's not just a drink, it's a holy start
A second chance found in Chelsea's heart
Oh, with your dark hair and your gentle way
You saved my life, yes, you saved that day
You pulled me from the shades of blue
And showed me what true love can do
On Fourth Street, in Fado, it's true...
My life began the night I found you...
Just a girl with dark hair... who made my world new.
