Lyrics
Nicky's in the corner
Nicky is positioned in the corner.
With a black coat on
Nicky is wearing a black coat.
Running from a bad home
Nicky is escaping from an unpleasant or abusive home environment.
With some cat inside
There is someone with her, perhaps symbolic, hidden or mysterious.
Now where did you find her
Asking where Nicky was discovered among the bright and attention-grabbing lights of the city.
Among the neon lights
She was found among the glowing, vibrant lights that dominate the streets.
That haunt the streets outside
These lights are haunting and possibly reflect the harsh realities or dangers of the outside world.
Stay with me
A plea or invitation for Nicky to remain close.
Beautiful girl
Describing Nicky as a beautiful girl.
(stay with me)
Encouraging Nicky to stay.
Beautiful girl
Reiterating Nicky's beauty.
(stay with me)
Repeating the plea for Nicky to stay.
She wants to go home
Expressing Nicky's desire to return home.
From door way to door way
Describing Nicky's movement from one doorway to another, from one street corner to the next.
Street corner to corner
Portraying Nicky's constant wandering in the city.
With neon ghosts in the city
The city is filled with spectral, eerie lights.
And she sings
She sings amidst this urban environment.
Stay with me
Repeated calls for Nicky to stay.
Stay with me
-Stay with me
-Stay with me
-She's so scared
She is deeply frightened.
So very frightened
Expressing her intense fear.
Anything could happen
There's a sense of unpredictability or danger looming around her.
Right here tonight
Implying that anything could happen to her in this current situation or environment.
Beautiful girl
Repetition of the plea for Nicky to stay and her desire to go home.
(stay with me)
-Beautiful girl
-(stay with me)
-She wants to go home
-Beautiful girl
Continued repetition of the plea for Nicky to stay, emphasizing her beauty and the desire for her presence.
(stay with me)
-Beautiful girl
-(stay with me)
-Beautiful girl
-(stay with me)
-Beautiful girl
-(stay with me)
