A whole lot of people talking,
Trying to make sense. Seems everybody's living on a barbed wire fence, Whole lotta people too proud to call, 'Cause it won't get no help at all. Everybody's waiting for the good news day, But it seems so far away. Wonder if it's ever gonna come, 'Cause the way it's been, The restless one. Lot of things have gotta change, If it's not already too late. But it is worth the wait, So, let's not hang our heads, The light will shine one day. Lot of things have gotta change, If it's not already too late. But it is worth the wait, So, let's not hang our heads, The light will show through yet. Yeahh... Now listen baby, and listen well, I've got only one thing to tell. Don't you worry about people telling lies, They're only catching flies. Yeahhh.. A whole lotta people talking, Trying to make sense. Seems everybody's living on a barbed wire fence, Whole lotta people too proud to call, 'Cause it won't get no, 'Cause it won't get no, 'Cause it won't get no, Help at all, Help at all. |

Tell me, who's that coming?
Not walking, but running. Cool as the mountain breeze. Well, that song she's humming, Could make my guitar start strumming. Automatically. Tell me, who's that speaking? To make my heart start beating. Really wanna make it pound. Well, those words she's saying, Could make even the devil start praying. On his knees down upon the ground. She's always had just what it took, To read me like I was an open book. There's something burning deep inside of me, And she's the only one who can set me free. Yeah....awhhh.. Tell me, who's that coming? Not hitching or thumbing. Walking straight at me. Well, I sure am grinning, Yeah, she's the one..and, I guess she'll always be. Tell me, who's that coming? Not walking, but running. Cool as the mountain breeze. Well, that song she's humming, Could make my guitar start strumming. Automatically. Yeah... She's always had just what it took, To read me like I was an open book. There's something burning deep inside of me, And she's the only one who can set me free. Awhhh..that's right. Who's that coming? Who's that coming here? Who's that coming? Who's that coming? Who's that coming? Is that you? Is that you? Well, tell me, is that you? Tell me, is that you? Who's that coming? |

When my baby she left me,
Left me with a mule to ride, When my baby she left me, Left me with a mule to ride, When that train left the station, That old mule laid down and died. Just give my baby, A brand new twenty dollar bill, I done give my baby. A brand new twenty dollar bill, If that don't get her back, I swear this old shotgun will. Standing down by the landing, Big old board on the door, Standing down by the landing, Big old board on the door, When I say goodbye, Won't see that girl no more. Look out baby, Gonna spread the news, Look out baby, Got to spread the news, Treat me so bad, I'm buried with these blues. When my baby she left me, Left me with a mule to ride, When my baby she left me, Left me with a mule to ride, When that train left the station, That old mule laid down and died. Yeah............ |

If you keep on walkin'
You'll walk right outta sight And if you keep your eyes closed You will not see the light Just give me a chance To put it right If you keep your heart closed You'll live out in the cold And you'll go on searchin' Such a lonesome road Let me be the one You wanna hold, yeah Wheels within wheels Confused what you feel a little bit Rules within rules Won't hide the hurt I have felt Well, I could keep on tryin' Looks like it's all been in vain For somethin's truly got you It's carryin' you away Don't leave me standing In this empty space |

Well I don't know anymore
I don't know why I feel so sore I only know I love you more I feel so blue I think I'll wave myself goodbye The people say you fade away >From my mind you wouldn't stay But you get stronger there everyday You know I feel so alone I think I'll wave myself goodbye This time next time it's all the same I'll just go on playin a losin game Until one day baby I'll even forget your name Someday someday It takes a fool too long to see Can't make out the wood for the trees I must have been blind as I could be But now I feel so blue I think I'll wave myself goodbye Well I don't know anymore I've lost you for sure I only know I want you more I feel so blue I think I'll wave myself goodbye |

I'm walkin' wounded,
Got my heart in a sling. I've been injected, Till I don't feel a thing. You got me hurting, Where it gets me most. If I had some sense, I'd move back to the Southern Coast. Yeahhhh.... I'm truly wounded Like a fox in a snare. I feel inspected, 'Cause I'm caught in your glare. You've done your damage, Are you sure that you're through? Don't cross me no more, I've had enough of you. Yeahhhh.... I'm sleepwalkin', Like an unlit fuse, I'm breaking out, baby, Got no time to lose. I feel suspended', Got no lust for life. You drew my picture, As sharp as a knife. Time is a wastin', But the message got through. Don't cross me no more, I've had enough of you. I'm walkin' wounded, Got my heart in a sling. I've been injected, Till I don't feel a thing. You got me hurtin', Where it gets me most. I've got some sense now, I'm going back to the Southern Coast. Yeahhhh....yeah. |

Well I lost my shirt at a card game in which I never had a chance
Well I lost my shirt at a card game in which I never had a chance The deck was marked, the game was rigged, You could not tell at a glance. Well, Lost my job on the weekend and I was back out on the street Well, I lost my job on the weekend and I was back out on the streets No way to get a dollar, but I spent it at the roulette wheel Well I walk on hot coals, sleep on a bed of nails Walk on thin ice, skate on razor blades Got my little girl beside me no matter what else fails. Well I spent it all down at the race track All the way my horsre led the field Well I spent it all down at the race track All the way my horse led the field But it was a hoax, the mare was doped, a length to win she fell down on her knees Gonna throw away my lucky penny, rabbit's foot and gypsy ring Gonna throw away my lucky penny, rabbit's foot and gypsy ring not gonna gamble on my baby, on this loosing streak I might not win Well I walk on hot coals, sleep on a bed of nails Walk on thin ice, skate on razor blades Got my little girl beside me no matter what else fails Well I walk on hot coals, sleep on a bed of nails Walk on thin ice, skate on razor blades Got my little girl beside me no matter what else fails |

Baby I no longer wanna be, just a thorn in your side.
Tell me what you gave me baby, and I will give you back. The troubles you gave me, gonna wrap em' up in a box, Tie em' up with string, send em' back to you, They no longer mean a thing to me. Better get used to bein' my used to be. Baby I no longer wanna be, just a cushion for your pride. Here's my fastback baby, this man's got a ride away. Before you make me change my mind, I'll be gone before you notice, that I'm not around. You'll look everywhere baby, but I just won't be found. Better get used to bein' my used to be. I used to be the hands of your clock baby, But I always knew in time. I'd no longer be the key to your lock baby, And you would change your mind. Owww... I used to be the hands of your clock baby, But I always knew in time. I'd no longer be the key to your lock baby, And you would suddenly change your mind. Owww... Baby I remember a time when you, really used to try. But now-a-days baby, you can't even look me in the eye. Your love is drifting with the tide. Well I ain't gonna blame you, if you ain't gonna blame me. I'll just move on down, I'm sure that you'll agree. Better get used to bein' my used to be. Well I ain't gonna blame you, if you ain't gonna blame me. I'll just move on down the line, I'm sure that you'll agree. Better get used to bein' my used to be. |

I can see the painting on the wall,
Mixtures of different colors. And I go walking in the Arizona sun, Slow walking peace of mind. The cactus blooms, the sand dunes, No city lights, I can see for miles, And my mind goes on forever. The sun goes to bed, Leaving sky of firey red. Each step takes me closer to heaven. All is full, all is nice, and all is well, But when I turn I can see my fellow man, Fighting in the city streets, And dieing where they dwell. Each step takes them closer to heaven. I can see the painting on the wall, Mixtures of different colors. And I go walking in the Arizona sun, Each step takes me closer to heaven. I go walking in the Arizona sun, I go walking in the Arizona sun, I go walking in the Arizona sun. |

They don't make them like you anymore, that's for sure
And when they made you They made sure they threw away the mould It comes as no surprise to me That I wanna be in your vicinity If I stand close to you, I'm not sure if I'm really there With my feet on the ground but my head's lost in the air Oh, how I wish you could see That I'd love to be in your vicinity Where would I go, what would I do If you should run from me? How does it show when you're to lose Will you explain to me? There's something growing There's something showing There's something won't let me be Where would I go, what would I do If you should run from me?

There's something growing There's something showing There's something won't let me be Where would I go, what would I do If you should run from me? How does it show when you're to lose Will you explain to me? There's something growing There's something showing There's something won't let me be They don't make them like you anymore, that's for sure And when they made you They made sure they threw away the mould Oh, how I wish you could be I wanna be in your vicinity Well, I've heard that one day Everything comes to him who waits Well, that may be so, but you know it might be too late Oh, how I'd love to see That I wanna be in your vicinity ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By RORY GALLAGHER <i>Lyrics © BUGHOUSE MUSIC OBO STRANGE MUSIC LTD</i> |

Is there a car straight under a light that's burning?
Prepared by your soul for all the secrets you're holding. Step back in time machine for a mind that's frozen. This is a mind that will challenge the full moon. Capture on acid a man whose mind is exploding. This is a life from the edge of the map that's turning. There on a map they check on the eye of the beholding. This is a flag for a mind that's frozen. Don't look for more deep in the sun it's turning. Ants all over your eyes broken ??? They're watching, They've got you now. They're showing pictures on a screen, Time slips and places where you've been. They're little secret of Saigon. You trust them mostly to Hong Kong. Guess what's right in the market place? Selling secrets at the lowest price. Eye to eye, come on it's your weakness. A childish game, marked with foolish ?? Walking city, cat 'n' mouse charming. They've got you - they've got you now. They'll watch you - they've got you now. |

Well, it's a straight line as the crow flies,
To a heaven here on earth. And if you make time, it's a cool drive, Head down to the coast. If your taste runs to the gumbo, Don't know where to go? Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco. If your head leaks like a strainer, The sea comes to your door. A strange sound from the juke-joint, A mile just down the road. Believe it when you hear it, The sound of the rubbing board. Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco. Yeahh.. Move it over, Open up that lane. Roll it over, Buddy, I'm insane. You won't feel like a stranger, You've found a second home. You can get out of your tree there, When that music hits your soul. Bye-bye Big Brother, 'Cause I'm going away, I wanna listen to the man, They call Clifton Chenier. Feel like a statistic, Feeling shrink-wrapped too. It's fun-time baby, You've been too long in school. Head down to the place, Near to Thibodaux, Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco. Move that semi, Buddy, I'm insane. It's now or never, I can't touch the brakes. Well, it's a stone's throw from the Bayou, And I can see the sign. Shining like a beacon, Right on through the night. No more airs and graces, Gotta catch the show. Let me introduce you to the King of Zydeco. |

Well, the devil made me do it, do it, do it
The devil made me trip and fall The devil drove me to it, to it, to it Till I had no chance at all What did I do that was so bad, to go and get myself arrested?

Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird,
And she warbles as she flies. And she never holler cuckoo, 'Til the 4th day of July. Jack of Diamonds Jack of Diamonds, Well I've known you of old. Well you've robbed my poor pockets, Of the silver and the gold. I'm goin up up on a mountain, I' m gonna build me a whiskey still. And I'll sell you one bottle, For a twenty dollar-bill. I'm going up upon a hillside, And I'm gonna stand lookin' down. So I can see my little baby, Whenever she is walking around. Oh the cuckoo she's a pretty bird, And she warbles as she flies. Well she brings us glad tidings, And she never tells no lies. Jack of Diamonds Jack of Diamonds, You're the meanest card I know. Well you robbed my poor pockets, And you nearly stole my soul. Well, I'll eat, when I'm hungry, And I'll drink, when I'm dry. And if some woman don't shoot me, Then I'll live a long time. Ohh-hoo Ohh-hoo Ohh-hoo Ohh-hoo Ohh-hoo Ohh-hoo Ohh-hoo Ohh-hoo. |

Tattoo'd lady,
Bearded baby, They're my family. When I was lonely, Something told me, where, I could always be. Where I could, Wish for pennies, If we had any. You'd meet me down, At the shooting gallery. Yes I'm a, Fair ground baby. Wonder what made me, Fall for the pearly queen. I spent my youth, Under canvas roof, As I roamed from town to town. I'm not fooling, When I say I got no schoolin', Never like the class bell sound. From the caravan, I hear the fairground band, Sounding good as they can be. You know I can't be found, But if you look around, Tomorrow we'll be gone by dawn. Alright Now hear it on the loud speaker say, The fire eater is a real fine sight to see, Yeah he's a death cheater, Some kind of central heater, Be sure to save a seat for me. Let me tell you 'bout wicked Sadie, She's no baby, The law came, And tried to close her sideshow down. But soon she had the D.A. cheering, The police chief wearing, Her garter for a crown. I spent my youth, Under canvas roof, As I roamed from town to town. I'm not fooling, When I say I got no schoolin', Never like the school bell sound. From the caravan, I hear the fairground band, Sounding good as they can be. You know I can't be found, But if you look around, Tomorrow we'll be gone by dawn.

I could sleep on a clothes line,
As easy as pie. I can't keep my eyes open, No matter how I try. I gotta sit down, I can't stay on my feet. I been up all night, I been walkin' the street. Oh yeah... Looking for my baby, But everywhere I've gone. Tell me I just missed her, It's gone on too long. Well, I'd go up on a mountain, And I'd fight a wild cat. Walk over Niagara, And all the way back. Get lost in the jungle, And I'd live up a tree. That's what I would want to do, If you would stay with me. Oh yeah... Looking for you baby, Gone from pillar to post. Wverywhere I'd just missed you baby, By a minute at the most. Well I'm looking for you baby, In the cafe's and the bar. All the places is glad to know you, And they say you cannot go too far. But you've gone far enough baby, If I find out I've done nothing wrong. Don't have to ask who's the fool, I won't be the one. Owwwww.......not a loser... Well, I would sleep on the tail-plane, Of a Jumbo Jet. Walk over the Ocean And I'd never once get wet. Go skating on an iceberg, And that's what I would once do. Lay it down a dozen times, Just to hear you say, "I Love You". Looking for you baby, But everwhere I go. Tell me I just missed you baby, By a minute at the most. Well, I could, Sleep on a clothes line, As easy as pie. I can't keep my eyes open, No matter how I try. I gotta sit down, I can't stay on my feet. I been up all night, I been walkin' the street. Yeah... Looking for you baby, Everwhere I go. Tell me I just missed you baby, You know, it's gone on too long. Yeah.. Gone too long baby. Yeah.. |

City streets and rolling cars,
The only sound you can hear. But you know you might be wrong, Just look right over here. Back up against the wall, Hands on the bottle. You're gonna walk on by, Then he cries you gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta, gotta. Take that sinner boy home, Wrap him up, keep him warm, He won't do no harm. Take him home right away, He's got no place to stay, Let him walk right inside your home. Go on and ask him his name, Let him try and explain, What in the world done him wrong. Tell the man, lift him up, Take away the paper cup. One more inside him won't do him no good. Sinner boy, Take that sinner boy home, Wrap him up, keep him warm, He won't do no harm. Take him home right away, He's got no place to stay, Let him walk right inside your home. Take that sinner boy home, Wrap him up, keep him warm, He won't do you, he won't do you no harm. |

Who's that calling way out there?
I've got your signal, loud and clear. In the distance a light is near, Through the night, sharp as a spear. My mind sees all the things my eyes can't see, What are you trying to say to me? I've got your signal, Feel your signal. Everything seems very strange, And now you're not that far away. I feel so calm, I don't feel fear, Behind that light I know you're there. My ears hear sounds I've never heard before, Tell me what you've really come here for. I've got your signal, Ohh.... feel your signal. There's a beacon flashing in the distant night, Don't feel time passing right before my eyes. Is my dreaming beyond control? I feel these movements here below. Is this the end, or is there more? I'll stay suspended for evermore. My eyes hear all the things my heart can't see, What are you trying to do to me? I've got your signal, Feel your signal. There's a beacon flashing in the distant sky, Don't feel time passing right before my eyes. Who's that calling from way out there? Got your signal, loud and clear. In the distance I know you're there, Through the night, sharp as a spear. My mind sees all the things my eyes can't see, What are you trying to say to me? Well, I've got your signal, I've got your signal, Feel your signal. |

I've got your signal, loud and clear. In the distance a light is near, Through the night, sharp as a spear. My mind sees all the things my eyes can't see, What are you trying to say to me? I've got your signal, Feel your signal. Everything seems very strange, And now you're not that far away. I feel so calm, I don't feel fear, Behind that light I know you're there. My ears hear sounds I've never heard before, Tell me what you've really come here for. I've got your signal, Ohh.... feel your signal. There's a beacon flashing in the distant night, Don't feel time passing right before my eyes. Is my dreaming beyond control? I feel these movements here below. Is this the end, or is there more? I'll stay suspended for evermore. My eyes hear all the things my heart can't see, What are you trying to do to me? I've got your signal, Feel your signal. There's a beacon flashing in the distant sky, Don't feel time passing right before my eyes. Who's that calling from way out there? Got your signal, loud and clear. In the distance I know you're there, Through the night, sharp as a spear. My mind sees all the things my eyes can't see, What are you trying to say to me? Well, I've got your signal, I've got your signal, Feel your signal. |

Should've learnt my lesson
long long time ago Should've learnt my lesson long long time ago Bored like a mule i've always learnt my lesson slow Should have listened taken my friends advice Should have listened to my best friends and to my eyes They said "you must be prepared to lose" If you choose to chance the dice Well i'm feeling about as tired as a bad pair of shoes When you don't fit then you know it's time to move But if you had my troubles you'd be cryin too My first mistake was when i thought that you'd be true My first mistake was when i thought that you'd be true now i realise that was a foolish thing to do |

Seven days of thunder eight days of rain
The feeling that I'm under Is like a ball'n chain, like a ball'n chain Just round the corner I know a store Gonna trade in my razor and bay a 44 And I'll come knocking knocking door to door The feeling in my head is like all out war All out war third world war And if they catch me and put me in the chair You can sit beside me there's plenty room to spare You are the reason I am in tis fix will you cry for me When they throw that switch throw that switch This time they'll lock me up for sure Throw away the key when they slam the door City to city town to town Seven days running Will they track me down Will they track me down |

You seemed to be like a real good idea,
At the time, at the time. You lifted me up to some higher ground, Then you knocked me down on the ground. But I rue that day like I don't know how. You picked me up right out of the tide, My eyes weren't open wide. I was blind, But I see much better, much better now. Well, I roll with the punches, I sway with the curves, I walked on a tightrope, didn't lose my nerve. Stayed on the canvas, couldn't count me out, Never threw in the towel, yeah, I saw the fight out and how. All fifty rounds. Well, I roll with the punches, I sway with the curves, I walked on a tightrope, didn't lose my nerve. Stayed on the canvas, couldn't count me out. Never threw in the towel, yeah, I saw the fight out and how. You lifted me up to some higher ground, Then you knocked me down on the ground.

Soft-soaped on the road to Hell
So many times I've tripped and fell No chances left The sky is falling down on me Yeah.... One step from the demons' fire Can't stop the train, and flames get higher Too late to save me The wall's coming down on me Yeah... Broken wishes and broken dreams Close to the edge, I cut it lean No regrets The flame's getting higher on me Yeah... Push the tempo, push the time No excuses, not this time No way out The ground's opening up on me Yeah... oh yeah... Can you feel the heat? Coming from the street Pouring down on me... yeah... They tried to keep me on a long thin chain Thanks, but no thanks just the same You saw it coming The devil's got the jump on me Yeah... Lost soul on the road to Hell Wind up the motor and ring the bell No stopping now The pain's coming down on me Yeah... Straight time on the road to Hell No mercy time at the wishing well No turning back The Angels gonna cry on me Yeah.... |

Well that sounds like the night train, blowin' its stack
Spreading its wings on homeward track Arrived here this morning, won't be here for long As fast as a shooting star, that's' what them eight wheels are for Come on baby lets jump aboard It's a mean piece of transport baby You know that's no joke On board the aging gamble smiles as he peels The seal off a new deck, then he quietly deals Hands round the table from the bottom he slips three Watch yourself if you play this game the fastest card game on wheels Come on, won't you be there when it leaves Can't you hear them talkin' about it together we could race the breeze It shines out a light, in the darkest night To make us feel alright To make us feel alright I've prayed every night That you will wanna go there too Come on darlin', let's go Night is over as the dawn begins to crack Sounds like a hen hatching in a chicken shack Late last night I think I heard a lonely cry Heard the blind owl howling in a moonless sky Come on Won't you be there when it leaves Can't ya hear me talkin' Together we could race the breeze Old engine driver never stepped on the ground Got no degree in geography but he's been around Knows all the back lines, eyes can hardly see Don't tell this man to slow down 'Cause he don't know what you mean Come on Won't you be there when it leaves Can't you hear me talkin baby Together we can race the breeze It shines out a light, in the darkest night To make us feel alright To make us feel alright I've prayed every night That you will wanna go there too Alright Well that sounds like the night train, blowin' its stack Spreading its wheels on homeward track Arrived here this morning, won't be here for long As fast as a shooting star, that's' what them eight wheels are for Won't you be there when it leaves Can't you hear me talkin' baby Together we can race the breeze Can't you hear me talkin' baby Together we can race the breeze Can't you hear me talkin' baby Together we can race the breeze |

Well you know yourself little girl,
You ain't treating your daddy right. Leave home in the morning, Ain't back till late at night. That's nothin' but the devil, Make you treat me the way you do. I'm gonna break out like the measles, I'm gonna be all over you. Went out early this morning baby, You dressed up like a queen. Saying you going to see your sister, But your sister, you've never seen. That's nothin' but the devil, Make you treat me the way you do. I'm gonna break out like the measles, Gonna inject you with the Asian flu. Well you know yourself little girl, Doing your daddy wrong. You go out in the evening, You're never coming home. It's nothin' but the devil, Make you treat me the way you do. Break out like the measles, Inject you with the Asian flu. Well you know yourself little girl, Treating your daddy wrong. Go in the mornin', Come back alone. Nothin' but the devil, Make you treat me the way you do. I'm gonna break out like the measles, I'm gonna be all over you. I'm gonna break out like the measles, Gonna be all over you. |

NO PEACE FOR THE WICKED
No peace for the wicked No way, no how If you've gone and did it You gotta pay somehow No use complaining 'Bout the hand that feeds Now you know it's raining How come you talk to me How come you talk to me, Well your friends in high places Won't bail you out this time With all your social grace It's like a pantomime Feeling so uneasy You can't tell friend from foe Your always looking back To see who's coming through the door You're like aloaded heater Just about to go off the street You need a baby-sitter To pick you up if you can't stand the heat You sold protection Fed the common fear Took yes for an answer You didn't see the tears Collecting from the loanshark |

You are a moonchild and pretty soon child
I've got that feeling That I'm gonna make you smile forever If I can. Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan You are a blue child, forever true child You know I'll try to paint the skies blue forever If I can. Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan. Tell me why you look so sad, Time slips by like grains of sand Just put your future in my hands You are a moonchild and pretty soon child I've got the feelin I'm gonna make you smile forever. If I can. Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan, Just give me a smile and I'll show you my plan, Just give me a sign and I'll show you my plan |

Well, a hurricane is on its way across the Bible Belt
Just watch the sway of the sugar cane Move from right to left It could be gone when the morning comes Should be heading west Hang around, go in the storm It's anybody's guess Still can't find you, still can't find you Well, sorrow is my middle name And I'll tell you something else Since you've been gone, I'm broken down I cannot trust myself Been hangin' 'round this lonesome town Feelin' less and less What is gonna happen here is anybody's guess? Still can't find you, still can't find you Who's gonna hide you? Yeah Well, a Terraplane just passed my way Won't give me a ride Standing on the freeway, the wind is rising high I could make out, there is no doubt But can't leave you behind Still, I cannot find you, no matter how I try Still can't find you, still can't find you What can I do? Yeah |

What's this I hearthat's going all around town?
The people are sayin' you gonna put the kid down, Lordy, what're you doing? You can call it what you want, I call it messin' with the kid. You told me you loved me, You told me a lie. I love you woman till the day I die. Lordy, what're you doing? You can call it what you want, I call it messin' with the kid. You took the kid's car and drove all around town, Tellin' everybody you're gonna put the kid down. Lordy, what're you doing? Call it what you want, I call it messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. You can call it what you want, I call it messin' with the kid. You told me you loved me, You told me a lie. I love you woman till the day I die. Take my car and drive all around town, Tellin' everybody you gonna put me down. Lordy, what're you doing? Call it what you want, I call it messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. Messin' with the kid. |

Running through a pool of rain
I think i'll do it one more time again I hope i always feel this way maybe i will Searching for a piece of ground where i can lay my body down with the earth for a pillow under my head Wake up in the morning it's a brand new day And though it seems the same it's different from yesterday Then i read the leaves and put my cup away Running down a country lane Looking on a a field of grain Just to see you smile makes me feel alive again Opening another door I'll see what i have not seen before Maybe i'll find what i'm looking for Running through a pool of rain I think i'll do it one more time again I hope i always feel this way maybe i will maybe i will |
