Name the song the line is from Part II

It’s a dead-end job, and you get tired of sittin’, It’s like a nicotine habit, You’re always thinkin’ of quittin’
And I think about quittin’ everyday of the week, ... When I look out my window, it’s brown and it’s bleak

Sorry, Rick that's not the name of the song. It also is not what not what happens when a lovely flame dies. Try again.

Recap:

What happens in this golden oldie?

When a lovely flame dies

I guess I don't know how to play this game ..... SORRY.

I thought yours was a question and/or comment. LOL

Well, I think Smoke Gets In Your Eyes.

I'm pretty sure that song goes back much earlier, but it first showed up on my radar when The Platters did it. I'm guessing that was late-50s?


OK, this was a #3 US hit in 1983 (also #1 on the US Dance charts that same year):

When I hold you in my arms at night
Don't you know you're sleeping in the spotlight?
