RUFUS WAINWRIGHT
"I Wonder What Became Of Me"

The lights are bright
Pianos makin' music all the night
They push in pain just like it's rain
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me

Crowds go by
They're merry makin' laughter in their eyes
And laughter's fine
But I wonder what became of me

Life's sweet as honey
But still it's funny
I get this feeling that I can't analyse
It's like well maybe
When like a baby
See's a bubble burst before its eyes

I've had my threats
They've lit my cigarettes with dollar bills
But I can't begin [?]
For along the way
Something went astray

And I can't explain
It's the same champagne
It's a sight to see
But I wonder what became of me
