The other day I thought I saw you Getting in a cab on Halston Street There ain't much good in this dirty neighborhood Unless you're looking for me, aw but you're not looking for me Those were the darkest days and clearest nights Jet black and angel white Eagles on the Chrysler building Look as though they'd like to speak They've seen a lot of sad sad cases They never even blinked, aw what would they think? Cause those were the darkest days and clearest nights
Jet black and angel white Jet black and angel white And now you're probably married To that rich guy - what's his name? I had to ask, "Is that for real?" When I saw the engagement ring You wore it for protection To the dive you met me at I'm glad to see you still so insecure Cause those were the darkest days and clearest nights Jet black and angel white Awww, no shades of gray, no soft twilight Jet black and angel white
