As I walk among my small regrets From the valley of the shadow where do I get? With all my intents and purpose, I'm looking for some level surface I turn to you. I know this tension doesn't go away. But I will look it in the face today. See in color though they show me in gray So I put my shoes on and pay my debts And get hours ahead of all the tears I can forget With my arm around your back I will play the deck no matter how much it's stacked And we could have some say in what we take as real Grab this town like it was no big deal But everyone's afraid to break the seal So I drive home past the closed up stores and homes That each look sadder than the one before I want to go bang on every door And say "Wake up, you're sleeping through heaven" And I don't care who knows, I don't know who cares If you don't want yours then let me have my share I can turn my back on the younger man Who thought he was breaking ground for some fatherland With an eye toward toppling ten pins Grew up so fast, it made his head spin Picked lonely fights and showed an ugly face to all concerned Stood up and took it on the chin by turns In troubled waters as his bridges burned I'm afraid of streets when lights are out And I'm well aware that an up is a down But for all these lessons I'm learning, I know I can't stop the yearning I want you tonight. I guess that some would say my life's a mess But you have let me show some great success (Or maybe I'm too dumb to stay depressed) Everyday I want it more I used to be to glad to stay home being bored I want to go bang on every door And say "Wake up, you're sleeping through heaven!"Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
