There'll be no moon tonight
And the stars won't light the sky
There are women on the streets
But there's no loving in their eyes
Feeling weary
Tired and wishing
I was standing in your doorway now
Ooh, ooh
There'll be dancing flames
Something special cooking slow
Perfume heavy
And all the lanterns turned down slow
Oh that lucky
Oh that lucky man
Who's standing in your doorway now
Ooh, ooh
I'm a wandering man
You'll never tie me down
Lifelong sailor
But oh how I wish I was homeward bound
At this moment
Tired and wishing
I was standing in your doorway now
In your doorway now
Standing in your doorway now
