Roxy Music - True to Life lyrics

So it gets to seven and I think of nothing
But living in darkness and the diamond lady
Well she's not telling
I don't even know her name

It's amazing times have changed
In days of old
Imagination'd leave you standing
Out in the cold dancing city
Now you're talking but where's your soul
You've a thousand faces i'll never know
True to life true to life

There are complications and compensations
If you know the game
Agitated in Xenon nightly
I'll take you home again

Travel way downtown in search of nothing
But the sky at night and the diamond lady
Well she's not talking yeah, that's alright
True to life true to life

True to life so I turn the pages
And tell the story from town to town
People tell me be determined
Poor country boy
Too much luck means too much trouble
Much time alone but arm in arm
With my seaside diamond i'll soon be home
