lyrics

You’re far from home down to the bone
What’s a guy to do
When the man just smiles and falls to pay the dues
In the midnight hour the change of power
Is sweet to comprehend
And the night our alibi to breakin’ news

You can’t pretend when once a friend
Does something bad to you
The cut is deep and the feeling won’t go away
You turn your back in truth the fact
Is that it gives you pain
There will be another time another day

I ain't forgetting nothing
The slow times or the thrill
On the road is second nature to me still
(It seems like yesterday Ah-ooo)
And I don’t mind confessing
Hate my window-sill
Outside it wouldn’t lose grey skies
But California will …

You sacrifice on good advice
Your ticket down the line
But the wait is long and end shard to see
You been cheated twice but you roll the dice
In hope just one more time
It’s the same old song there was no guarantee
