Track 03 on album The Very Best Of Bananarama  (2001)

Hopes dashed to the floor
Like shattered teenage dreams
Boys living next door
Are never what they seem

(bridge 1)
A walk in the park can become a bad dream
People are staring and following me
This is my only escape from it all
Watching a film or a face on the wall

(chorus)
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
Robert De Niro's waiting
Talking Italian
(Talking Italian)
Robert De Niro's waiting

I don't need a boy
I've got a man of steel
Don't come any closer
I don't wanna feel

(bridge 2)
Your breathing, your touching, but nothing's for free
I never want this to happen to me
Don't try to change me you're wasting your time
Now I've got something much better in mind

(chorus)

(bridge 1)

(chorus ad lib)
