Tomorrow We'll See

The streets are wet
The lights have yet
To shed their tawdry lustre on the scene
My skirtÕs too short
My tights have run
These new heels are killing me

My second pack of cigarettes
ItÕs a slow night but thereÕs time yet
Here comes john from his other life
He may be driving to his wife
But he'll slow down take a look
IÕve learned to read them just like books
And itÕs already half past ten
But theyÕll be back again

Headlights in the rainy street
I check, make sure itÕs not the heat
I wink, I smile, I wave my hand
He stops and seems to understand
The small transaction we must make
I tell him that my heart will break
If heÕs not a generous man
I step into his van

The say the first is the hardest trick
After that itÕs just a matter of logic
They have the money I have the time
Being pretty's my only crime
You ask what future do I see
I say itÕs really up to me
I donÕt need forgiving
IÕm just making a living

DonÕt judge me
You could be me in another life
In another set of circumstances
DonÕt judge me
One more night IÕll just have to take my chances
And tomorrow weÕll see

A friend of mine he wound up dead
His dress was stained the colour red
No next of kin no fixed abode
Another victim on this road
The police just carted him away
But someone took his place next day
He was home by thanksgiving
But not with the living

DonÕt judge me
You could be me in another life
In another set of circumstances
DonÕt judge me
One more night IÕll just have to take my chances

And no itÕs just not in my plan
For someone to care who I am

I'm walking the streets for money
ItÕs the business of love, 'hey honey'
C'mon, donÕt leave me lonely, donÕt leave me sad
ItÕll be the sweetest five minutes you ever had

DonÕt judge me
You could be me in another life
In another set of circumstances
DonÕt judge me
One more night IÕll just have to take my chances
And tomorrow weÕll see
