I'd settle for a strand of hair
Lying on a pillow case.
Just one, to understand
Why I can't sleep,
If I could find a cigarette
Left burning in an ashtray
That would be enough
Prove for me,
That would be enough.
Hunting down a killer
I'm working out the truth.
Hunting down a killer
But I haven't got a clue.
I haven't got a clue.
If I could catch a silhouette
Moving behind closed blinds
I'm sure I'd find another
Moving jointly.
I would take an honest man
That fumbles for an alibi
If I believed he just might be.
If I believed...
(Chorus)
I will find those illusive hands
That tear at the insides
Of some pitiful man.
Oh, so handsome
So much that it hurts,
With hands that seize and illegally search.
(Chorus)
