I wonder who will listen to this song
Who will know that I was here and gone
When time has passed and my days are done
Will you remember being in my arms
I need your faith to carry on
When the hour’s late and the shadows long - and the world moves on
I dreamed I saw you but I could not hear
Your voice was silent but your eyes were clear
You pulled me close and whispered in my ear
“I’m traveling on but I’ll always be near”
I woke up cold before dawn
I called your name but you were gone - and the world moved on
My eyes have seen what they should never see
My ears hear stories I refuse to believe
Like a ship caught in a stormy sea
My path is changing, I don’t know where it leads
I can’t undo what’s been done
The final bell has not yet rung
I’m walking towards the rising sun
A brand new day has just begun - and the world’s moved on
My eyes are all bleary and red
An icepick is driving it`s way through my head
I ain`t going crazy, no I ain`t going crazy
Ain`t going crazy, just working too hard, that's all
Running around trying to make ends meet
Nothing accomplished, nothing complete
I ain't going crazy, no I ain't going crazy
Ain't going crazy, just working too hard, that's all
How I wish, how I wish the rain would fall
I'm so tired, of running into walls
That's all
Even when the madness stops
I still wait for the other shoe to drop
I ain't going crazy, no I ain't going crazy
Ain't going crazy, just working too hard, that's all
Like a headless chicken, running around
Still don't realize that the ax came down
I ain't going crazy, no I ain't going crazy
Ain't going crazy, just working too hard, that's all
Ain't doing too bad
but my back's up against the wall
I ain't crazy, just working too hard, that's all
Be careful what you wish for you just might get it
I fixed what wasn’t broke and now I regret it
Where did you go, I don't know what to do
I feel so lonesome sleeping next to you
I want you back
I want the old you back
This ain't what I signed on for
I want the old you back
We used to laugh together, but I was hearing just myself
Fortune smiled at me and I ran to all that wealth
I'm not laughing now; want to hide under a rock
I'd give anything just to turn back the clock
I want you back
I want the old you back
This ain't what I signed on for
I want the old you back
I made my baby cry, nobody’s fault but mine
Can’t ignore it or pretend it’ll be better this time
I told her I was sorry, she said "too late Jack
The cat's out of the bag, no way to get it back”
I want you back
I want the old you back
This ain't what I signed on for
I want the old you back
My heart’s still beating but my blood has run cold
My lips form a grin that my eyes just can’t hold
My words leave a taste in my mouth that’s like mold
And I can’t find the place where I lost my soul
Pour me one more shot and I’ll be ready to fight
Sometimes you just need to get lost in the night
30 years down the road, it still feels the same
I’m losin’ my illusions of fortune and fame
Got a roomful of people and they’re calling my name
But it’s getting harder to keep fanning the flames.
The next one will be huge, you’ll see, it’s gonna be dynamite
This one just happened to get lost in the night
Don’t you worry about me,’cause I’m doing just fine
I just felt the need to step out of the line
I can sense you discreetly, looking for signs
That I’ve lost it completely, and gone out of my mind
Don’t believe what you hear, my bark is worse than my bite
I’m just an old dog who got lost in the night
Just as the day turns into night
You get the chills just from the sight
The gleaming of the city’s towers
In the light of the golden hour
You take a breath and clear your mind
The air is cool and sweet like wine
You’ve come awake, you are empowered
By the light of the golden hour
I think of all the wrong I’ve done
The battles lost, the friendships gone
But fate will heal if you allow her
The slate is cleaned in the golden hour
Like looking down at earth from space
You see just beauty, peace and grace
The dust displaced by thundershowers
And purified in the golden hour
I think of all the wrong I’ve done
The battles lost, the friendships gone
But fate will heal if you allow her
The slate is cleaned in the golden hour
And soon the gold dissolves to Blue
Storm clouds sail across the moon
I sing her name all through the night
And wait to see that golden light
I think of all the wrong I’ve done
The battles lost, the friendships gone
But fate will heal if you allow her
The slate is cleaned in the golden hour
Where you gonna go on the day they find you out, whatcha gonna do
Where you gonna go on the day they find you out, whatcha gonna do
Got nowhere left to hide, no friend to help you through
What you gonna do when your bluff gets called, no one believes you
What you gonna do when your bluff gets called, no one believes you
You fooled everyone for a while, but now you ran out of fools
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do (x3)
How you gonna pay when your number comes up, when your debt comes due
How you gonna pay when your number comes up, when your debt comes due
You’ve been stealing from your friends, now the joke’s on you
What you gonna say on the judgement day, with your back to the wall
What you gonna say on the judgement day, with your back to the wall
You were all so high and mighty, now no one will take your calls
whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do (x3)
